A man who was found to have died in his Garfield County Jail cell early Thursday morning has been identified as Morris Lee Andreatta, 40, of Glenwood Springs.

“The cause and manner of death are pending investigation; however, the investigation into the manner of death is most consistent with a natural death,” Garfield County Coroner Robert Glassmire said in a Friday morning statement.

Andreatta was discovered to be unresponsive in his cell about 3:30 a.m. Thursday, and attempts by jail personnel and EMTs to revive him were unsuccessful, the coroner said.

Coroner's office investigators learned that the detention's staff attempted to wake the inmate for a routine medical check. He was pronounced dead at 4:45 a.m.
