A 44-year-old Juneau man was found dead Thursday morning in a residential neighborhood near Juneau International Airport.<\/p>\n
The body of Robert Harold Houtary was discovered in a ditch near the intersection of Radcliffe Road and Eagle Street about 5:36 a.m., Juneau Police Department Lt. David Campbell said by phone.<\/p>\n
“At this point in time, we’re not suspecting foul play, and we’re just awaiting what the medical examiner’s office has to say,” Campbell said.<\/p>\n
Houtary was identified by the identification he had in his wallet, and Campbell said his family has been notified.<\/p>\n
When the Empire arrived at the scene in midmorning, a photographer found no police presence.<\/p>\n
Campbell said there were no visibly obvious signs of violence. Houtary was dressed in a cotton hoodie, and family members told police that he had some medical problems, Campbell said.<\/p>\n
Capital City Fire\/Rescue responders pronounced Houtary dead at the scene, and Fire Chief Rich Etheridge confirmed the location and timing of the discovery.<\/p>\n
Temperatures Wednesday night into Thursday dipped to 53 degrees at the airport, with heavy rain at times.<\/p>\n
