According to Spectrum Blodgett officials, Dan Lester, 40, had high levels of alcohol and antidepressants in his blood after being found unresponsive Feb. 27.

Because of the high levels of antidepressants, Lester’s death has been ruled a suicide, officials said.

After his body was discovered that morning, investigators also said Lester was not appropriately dressed for the cold weather.
