Newly Elected Mayor of Juneau, Alaska, Died of Natural Causes

The police chief in Alaska's capital city defended his department's response after the newly elected mayor was found dead at home, bruised and bloodied, and speculation ran rampant as to the cause of his death.

But on Wednesday, preliminary autopsy results indicated that Stephen "Greg" Fisk, 70, died of natural causes and that the injuries he sustained were consistent with falling or stumbling into objects. 

The speculation was fueled — and the attention surrounding the case grew — when police did not immediately rule out foul play in the death of Fisk, who went by Greg.
