The 60-year-old Grand Rapids man died June 21 at the hospital. Hospital officials initially treated the death as an internal matter, and a medical examiner determined the patient died naturally.
Mercy Health staff called police a day after the death to investigate, as the man was not hospitalized at the time of his death, according to the report. A Kent County Medical Examiner’s Office examination June 25 confirmed the death resulted from natural causes. Police closed the case after ruling out potential criminal activity, according to the report.
