Duluth man found dead at Ely campsite
Ely, Minn. (AP) — A Duluth man who was several days overdue from a camping trip has been found dead at a campsite in northeastern Minnesota.
Family members hadn't heard from 51-year-old Daniel Eric Saari, who reportedly was camping alone on Burntside Lake near Ely (EE'-lee). On Saturday, authorities found his vehicle and boat trailer at a public landing on the lake. They found his body at a campsite along the lake a few hours later.
The St. Louis County sheriff's office says Saari died apparently of natural causes, but an autopsy will be conducted.
