ME: No foul play in hanging death of illegal immigrant

The state Medical Examiners Office says today that the 27-year-old Providence man who was found dead several hours after immigration officials raided his apartment died from hanging.

David De La Roca was found behind a locked door, hanging from a belt, after Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials arrested his roommate, Mynor Montufar, the father of the first baby born in 2008. Both men were illegal immigrants.

The Medical Examiners Office confirms there was no evidence of foul play in De La Roca's death. Meanwhile, Montufar awaits deportation.
