    Sleep apnea blamed for death of 25-year-old

    By the Herald staff

    Sleep apnea was determined the cause of death for Patrick Scott II, who was found dead in his bed Friday morning.

    Benton County Coroner Rick Corson said the 25-year-old man had a medical history of sleep apnea, which is an inability to breathe properly during sleep.

    Corson said information from Scott's doctor and his parents indicated sleep apnea and the lack of oxygen because of not breathing caused heart failure. An autopsy was not needed, Corson said.
