DOVER - The Dover Police Department and the state's medical examiner are investigating yet another death of a Dover man from a presumed drug overdose.

Daniel Wong, 31, was found unresponsive around 6:40 a.m. on Oct. 10 at his Regent Drive residence by first responders. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

While the cause and manner of Wong's death will ultimately be determined by the medical examiner, at this time it appears to be drug related, police say.

An autopsy was conducted on Oct. 12, and the results are pending while waiting for lab testing to be completed.

If Wong's death is determined to be from a drug overdose, it will be the 10th in Dover this year, all of which are suspected to be opioid related. Meanwhile, the Dover Police Department has responded to 47 nonfatal drug overdoses in the same time period.

This case is being investigated by the Dover Police Department's Special Investigations Bureau. Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call the Dover Police Department at 603-742-4646. Anonymous tips may be called into the Dover Crimeline at 603-749-6000.
