A 23-year-old man who fell at Sleeping Giant State Park is confirmed dead, as reported by News 8 WTNH per the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection Environmental Police (EnCon).

He suffered head and chest injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. 

The man’s fall was reported Monday morning. EnCon Police arrived at the scene around 11:45 a.m, according to CTPoliceLive. 

 “The man was found in the woods and succumbed to his injuries at the scene,” News 8 WTNH reported.
