TOPEKA, Kan. — Police in Topeka are investigating a suspicious death.

Police say in a news release that officers were called shortly after 6 p.m. Tuesday to the North Topeka East neighborhood near the riverfront to check on the welfare of a person. Arriving officers found a person unresponsive. Paramedics pronounced the person dead a short time later.

Police did not release the person’s identity or give any details about the death, other than to say the death is considered suspicious and is being investigated.
