Authorities in Washington County, Ohio are
reviewing the death of a Palestine, Wirt County
man, who died July 9th of a head injury after
being struck by another man.
Twenty-seven-year-old Leo M. Pettry died of
"blunt force trauma" after his head hit the
pavement, having taken a punch in the face.
Pettry reportedly returned to a Belpre, Ohio
residence to apologize to a man for an earlier
encounter, when that man apparently continued
the dispute.
Belpre, Ohio police have turned the investigation
over to county authorities.
