The Hartford Police Department was dispatched to the Bushnell
Park pond at approximately 1030pm Tuesday on a report of an unresponsive person.
Officers located a 63 year old male and initiated CPR and emergency medical
treatment. He was transported to Hartford Hospital where he was pronounced dead a
short time later. The two people who initially found the man reported he was
discovered lying face down on the rock skirt wall of the Bushnell Park Pond. He
was in contact with the water.
Major Crimes Division detectives are investigating the
suspicious death cautiously, as cause of death could not be immediately
determined. That determination will be based out of the OCME following an
autopsy. Identification has been made, but release is pending next of kin
notification. I will release any details or changes as they become available.
Please Help: ANY OF THE
MANY RESIDENTS OR BUSINESSES WHO MAY HAVE VIDEO SURVEILLANCE OF THE BUSHNELL
PARK POND ARE ASKED TO CONTACT SERGEANT WEAVER AT (860) 757-4214.
