Jail Death Fort Frances

The father of a 21-year-old man who died on the weekend in a Fort Frances jail cell says his son likely died in his sleep.

Terry Wreggitt of Atikokan says it's possible his son Dylan had a brain aneurysm after suffering a concussion in a car accident last fall.

Dylan Wreggitt was just three months into a two-year sentence for a break-and-enter offence.

Police earlier said they don't suspect foul play in Wreggitt's death, although an official cause of death won't be known until anautopsy is complete.
