A man who died while attending a country
music festival in Kansas has been identified as a Nebraska native.
Pottawatomie County authorities say 20-year-old Jacob Kruetzer,
of Beaver Creek, Neb., died early Thursday at the Country Stampede
at Tuttle Creek State Park.
Kruetzer was found unresponsive at a campground and died on the
way to a Manhattan hospital.
Pottawatomie County Sheriff Greg Riat says
foul play is not suspected in Kruetzer’s death but the
investigation continues.
Thousands of country music fans are expected to attend the
four-day Country Stampede, which started Thursday.
