No foul play in death of man found in truck in Providence

PROVIDENCE -- There was no evidence of foul play in the death of a 61-year-old man found in a truck in Providence, but the cause of death is pending further investigation, according to the state medical examiner's office.

Robert Webster, of no permanant address, was found dead, slumped behind the wheel of a Rent-A-Center truck on Hartford Avenue in the city's Olneyville section on Jan. 3, the police have said.

The truck was parked in a lot at 55 Hartford Ave. at the Rent-A-Center store when the body was discovered at about 8 p.m.
