Authorities: Man Dies in Pennington County Detox Facility

RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) — The Pennington County Sheriff's Office says a 56-year-old man was found dead on Thursday morning in the safe bed wing of the City-County Alcohol and Drug Program Detox facility in Rapid City.

The sheriff's office says there's no reason to suspect foul play, and the man's name is being withheld pending notification of relatives.

Authorities say the beds are available to those who need a short term place to stay in a warm, safe environment, but do not want to utilize the treatment services provided by detox.

The investigation has been turned over to the Rapid City Police Department.
