A West Dundee man has been identified as the person whose body was found Tuesday on Carpentersville’s Main Street hill, east of Route 31.
It’s believed that the death of 33-year-old Matthew Burke was the result of an accidental fall based on the results of a Kane County Coroner’s Office autopsy conducted Wednesday, Carpentersville Deputy Police Chief Kevin Stankowitz said.
Officials believe the fall occurred near where he was found by a passerby about 3:30 a.m. Tuesday.
Alcohol is not believed to have been a factor, although that will not be known for certain until toxicology tests requested by the coroner’s office are returned, Stankowitz said.
