The body of a Minneapolis man was discovered in Isanti County on Sunday, Oct. 12 shortly after 10 a.m.
According to the Isanti County Sheriff's Department, the body of 56-year-old Steven Richard Johnson, was found several feet away from a Jeep Cherokee. The vehicle, which was lying on its side, was registered to Johnson. Two dogs were still inside. No one else was around.
The incident occurred along Polk Street Northeast just south of County Road 3. According to Chief Deputy Russ Monson, it appeared that the man lost control while going around the curve and went off the road.
It is being treated as a fatal accident, and is still under investigation at this time. The preliminary autopsy report will likely be finished on Tuesday.
It is not yet known when the crash occurred or how long the man was there.
Neither of the two dogs were injured.
