Tisbury police discovered a body in woods on Hvoslef Way in Vineyard Haven early Monday morning, according to Lieutenant Eerik Meisner. Meisner could offer no further detail.

Tisbury Police immediately turned the matter over to the Massachusetts State Police. A State Police spokesman referred calls on the subject to the Cape and Islands District Attorney’s Office. A call to that office has not been returned.

A law enforcement source tells The Times no foul play is suspected in the man’s death.

Updated to indicate no foul play suspected. – Ed.

  1. FOUR DAYS, NO UPDATE. What gives, MV Times?
    Should the neighbors freak out?
    You have responsibility to update this story.

    • We would like to update our readers. We asked Cape and Islands District Attorney Michael O’Keefe’s office, which is responsible for investigating unattended deaths, about this and O’Keefe’s office has not responded. Unfortunately, we can’t just print unconfirmed reports.

  2. Thank you for editing out 1 line from my comment.

    Tells me that the info (now edited out) is accurate, and THAT tells me that your paper is just unwelcome clutter in my post office box.
