Friends and family of a college freshman at Campbellsville University in Kentucky are at a loss as to why his wrestling teammate reportedly strangled him to death in his dorm room. The tragic incident happened just days before the wrestling team was set to make a trip to Kansas for a national championship, according to Fox News Digital.
Josiah Kilman, 18, was found dead in his dorm room just before 1:00 a.m. on February 24. His horrific death is the fourth homicide on a college campus across the country in just a ten-day span.
One of Kilman's wrestling teammates who requested not to be identified said the freshman college student had three roommates in his room in the college's South East dorm. The report noted that it is not clear how Kilman was discovered, or where his three roommates were at the time of the incident.
The Campbellsville Police Department announced on Monday that the Kentucky State Medical Examiner's Office said Kilman was manually strangled which ultimately led to his death, according to the report.
