BARTLESVILLE, Oklahoma -- Bartlesville police are awaiting autopsy results on a man whose body was found near water treatment facilities.

Police Chief Tom Holland says it appears the 51-year-old man died from natural causes, and there was no evidence of foul play. Holland says investigators will know more once the state Medical Examiner's report is complete.

The man's name was being withheld pending notification of his relatives.

Holland says the man was found about 2:20 p.m. Monday on the Pathfinder Parkway walking trail. He had no identification on him.

Holland said officers located a car belonging to the victim near the YMCA and then found family members at the recreation facility who had been searching for him because he'd been gone for some time.
