Shortly before 6 pm, Jan. 2, McKinley County Sheriff’s deputies responded to call to a home on the 200 block of Summit. A Native American male identified as Phelen McThomas, 36 from Kayenta, Ariz. was found deceased outside.

Undersheriff James Maiorano says foul play has been ruled out. A sheriff’s spokesman said investigators don’t believe the man’s death was weather-related. This was all the information they provided to the Sun. We will provide updates as they become available.
