Man Found Dead In Morgan Hill Field Died Of Natural Causes

A body found in a Morgan Hill field last week was that of a 68-year-old man who died of natural causes, police said today.

The man’s body was found by a landscape worker in a field near Cochrane Circle and Cochrane Road around 9:45 a.m. last Thursday, police said. The field, which is large enough for a tractor, is in an area surrounded by open vegetation and industrial businesses, according to police.

The Santa Clara County medical examiner’s office is not releasing the man’s name or city of residence until his next of kin is notified of his death.

An autopsy revealed that he died of a heart attack, according to the medical examiner’s office.
