A 72-year-old New Hampshire man was found dead Wednesday in a recreational vehicle parked at a La Salle travel plaza, but no foul play is suspected.

A death investigation was launched to determine the cause.

In a news release sent Thursday, the La Salle Police Department said officers were dispatched at 10:36 p.m. Wednesday to Flying J Travel Plaza, where a foul odor was found to emanate from a parked RV. Inside, police found a man’s body.

“No foul play is suspected, and the name of the deceased is being withheld pending notification of the next of kin,” Detective Sgt. Brian Camenisch said in the release.
