A 64-year-old man froze to death and his body was found Tuesday near his wheelchair on his front porch by a food deliverer.

The Summit County medical examiner said Thursday that Darnell Wilson accidentally died as a result of hypothermia, according to WEWS.

Wilson was discovered next to his wheelchair on an enclosed porch by a Mobile Meals worker who was delivering food in the neighborhood, according to WEWS.

He lived with a family friend who was not home at the time of his death.

Wilson had three children and six grandchildren, his daughter told WEWS.
