Franklin Street Death Update

Cambria County Coroner Jeff Lees confirmed Monday that a local man was found dead by a postal worker late last work outside a home in Roxbury.

Lees identified the man as 61-year-old John Fuge, of Johnstown, and says he died from hypothermia.

Officials say Fuge was found Friday morning on the back porch of his Franklin Street home by a mail carrier.

Authorities say Fuge was pronounced dead at the scene by the Cambria County Deputy Coroner.

Following an autopsy over the weekend, Fuge’s death has been ruled as accidental.
