A 42-year-old man was found dead in a hot tub at Club San Diego last Friday, Dec. 30, according to the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s office and the San Diego Police Department.

San Diego Police Sgt. Jim Schorr told the San Diego Union-Tribune that the body had been under water for “quite some time.” The body was discovered when a patron got into the hot tub and stepped on the corpse.

Schorr told the Gay & Lesbian Times the case has been turned over to the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office after an SDPD investigation determined there was no suspicious activity leading to the man’s death.

The County Medical Examiner’s office said the man was found unresponsive at Club San Diego and that the cause of death was officially ruled an accidental drowning. They could not release the name of the victim as of press time because attempts to contact and locate the family are still being made.

The medical examiner’s office also said an autopsy has been performed and a final toxicology report would determine if other factors were involved in the death. It could take up to six weeks to receive the report, a representative from the County Medical Examiner’s office said.

Paramedics’ attempts to resuscitate the man at Club San Diego were unsuccessful and he was pronounced dead at Scripps Mercy Hospital at 4:42 a.m., according to the County Medical Examiner’s office.

Club San Diego owner Darl Edwards told the Gay & Lesbian Times he was not present at the club when the death occurred, and that he had no knowledge of the details surrounding the man’s death.
