Neosho man found dead in Rubicon River, death investigation underway
DODGE COUNTY, Wis. (CBS 58) -- A death investigation is underway after a 29-year-old Neosho man was found deceased in the Rubicon River Tuesday, Dec. 27.
First responders arrived at the scene, just west of State Highway 67, around 3:21 p.m.
Authorities are currently working to determine the cause of death; however, the Dodge County Sheriff's Office says no foul play is suspected.
A news release Tuesday says Sheriff Dale Schmidt would like to "remind all persons to use caution if going out on the ice.
It goes on to say, "while the ice may seem sturdy in some locations, it may break easily in others. Using the buddy system when going out on the ice is always a good idea, as well as wearing a flotation device and taking other safety precautions."
