BOISE, Idaho (AP) - Officials say a 43-year-old southwestern Idaho man found dead in a field late last month died of dehydration after his pickup truck got stuck in mud.
Payette County Coroner Keith Schuller tells the Idaho Statesman (https://bit.ly/2sKwyV6) in a story on Friday that Jeff Brenner died after spending hours in 90-degree weather without water and wearing a black shirt.
Schuller says Brenner struck out cross country rather than following a road after his truck got stuck.
