“(The roommate) said he … was nonresponsive,” Daley said. “He immediately called 911 after that.”

East Lansing Police and Fire departments were called at about 5:39 a.m. to the fraternity house, where they tried more than once to revive the student with CPR.

East Lansing Fire Marshal Bob Pratt said the student then was transported to Sparrow Hospital in Lansing, where he was pronounced dead.

Daley said the student was lying on a couch when the roommate found him after waking up to use the bathroom. Daley said alcohol was a factor in the death, but toxicology and autopsy reports have yet to be released.

Police are ruling out foul play at this point, but Daley said police are continuing to investigate the incident and are interviewing additional people about what the student was doing before he died.

David McCalla, president of MSU’s Tau chapter of Alpha Gamma Rho, said the student, who lived in the house, went to bed at about 2:30 a.m. The student was hanging out with friends Friday night and there was no social function at the fraternity that night, McCalla said.

The fraternity could not confirm the cause of death, he said. The student joined the fraternity in the fall of 2005 and was expected to graduate in spring 2010. McCalla said the student was the most senior member at the fraternity.

Alpha Gamma Rho is holding a luminary service at 6 p.m. today at the rock on Farm Lane. The public is welcome to attend.

Daley said police expect to reveal the student’s identity early today after contacting family.
