When they got to the scene, they found a male who appeared to be deceased “with a lot of trauma around,” according to Sheriff Rob Streck.
It was later determined that the victim was dead and that he had been stabbed.
The investigation is in its early stages, but Streck confirmed that deputies on the scene have collected some evidence.
Streck added it was too early in the investigation to say anything about any possible suspects or persons of interest, but said he has no reason to believe there is any danger to the public.
Anyone with information about the stabbing is encouraged to contact the sheriff’s office at (937) 225-HELP (4357).
