Sac State student found dead at residence hall
September 24, 2012
Andrew David Perry, a Sacramento State student, was found dead at the American River Courtyard residence hall in early Thursday morning.
Sacramento State Police Chief Mark Iwasa said the campus police department received a call at 12:46 a.m. When police arrived, they found Perry and time of death was called at 12:57 a.m., according to the Sacramento County Coroner’s Office.
Perry, 24, lived with four other roommates. They had grown suspicious because they had not heard from him and notified hall staff when they found his door to be locked.
Sac State police said Perry’s room looked undisturbed, and his cause of death will remain unknown until an autopsy is performed.
A memorial for Perry will be held at Grace Church in Tracy, Calif. on Sept. 25 at 11 a.m.
The State Hornet will update this story as further information becomes available.
