Authorities still don’t know what caused two men to die in separate incidents earlier this year, as both determinations are dependent on lab results that could take months.
Steven Drews, 62, of Grass Valley, was found unresponsive on Feb. 26 in the 100 block of West McKnight Way. He was still alive when discovered, but died shortly after being transported to the hospital.
An autopsy performed several days after Drews’ death was inconclusive, according to Grass Valley police. The death was classified as suspicious due to signs of blunt force trauma to the head, and foul play could not be ruled out, said Sgt. Clint Bates.
