Man found dead in vehicle in Rohnert Park

A homeless man was found dead Wednesday in a pickup truck in Rohnert Park, according to authorities.

The Rohnert Park Department of Public Safety was dispatched about 2:50 p.m. to a report of an unresponsive man in a truck on Roberts Lake Road, said Rohnert Park Deputy Chief Aaron Johnson.

The call for help was made by members of a nonprofit organization who were bringing the man food, Johnson said. Johnson did not know the name of the organization.

Police found the man in his vehicle, they did not say where, which was parked near the homeless encampment in a fenced-off commuter parking lot just east of Highway 101.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Rohnert Park authorities do not know how the man died but did not find anything suspicious at the scene, so they are not conducting an investigation into his death.

The man has not been identified.
