Man, 42, found dead in home

The Allen County Sheriff’s Department is investigating the death of a 42-year-old man at a home north of Fort Wayne.

Cpl. Jeremy Tinkel, a sheriff’s department spokesman, said paramedics and sheriff’s deputies were sent to the home in the 5300 block of Lonesome Oak Court, near Tonkel and East Dupont roads, about 11:40 a.m.

The man was dead in the home when they arrived, Tinkel said.

Tinkel said the man’s death was not a suicide and that authorities do not know whether foul play was involved.

He said investigators have been interviewing several people about the case.

The sheriff’s department did not release any other information.
