The recent winter storm has claimed the lives of three local elderly men, the Winnebago County Coroner’s Office reported Feb. 8.
According to the Coroner’s Office, two men — age 72 and 80 — died after suffering heart attacks while using snowblowers. They were both transported to local hospitals, where they were pronounced dead.
The third person, an 89-year-old man, was found lying in the snow behind his vehicle after it got stuck in the snow. He had apparently gotten out of his vehicle and took a shovel out of the trunk and was attempting to shovel the snow away from his vehicle when he suffered a cardiac event. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
