An Oklahoma City resident discovered 27-year-old Brandon Rogers Jr. beaten and clinging to life without a coat, lying in the snow behind their home in the 6800 block of Lyrewood Lv., near Wilshire Ave., early Sunday morning.

Investigators are not sure how long Rogers had been lying there, but believe a fight took place because they found atrial of blood leading to the street. Rogers was taken to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The case is still under investigation.
