Nude Man Dies After Forcing His Way Into Springfield Home: Police

SPRINGFIELD, VA — A nude man acting erratically forced his way into a Springfield home early Wednesday morning and was found unresponsive when police arrived around 12:30 a.m., according to the Fairfax County Police Department.

Fire and rescue personnel arrived at the home and transported the man to the hospital. Narcan was administered twice to the man by Fairfax County fire and rescue personnel while on their way to the hospital. The man was pronounced dead at the hospital, police said.

Fairfax County police detectives are working to identify the man. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner will conduct an autopsy to determine the specific cause and manner of death, according to police.

Police from the Franconia District responded to the break-in early Wednesday morning in the 5700 block of Ash Drive in Springfield. The homeowner told police that the unknown man "appeared to be under the influence" and forced his way into the house.

When police officers arrived at the home, they found the man lying on the floor and detained him. No force was used by the officers. Officers then rolled the man onto his side and requested fire and rescue personnel “due to his apparent altered state,” police said.
