MILPITAS — An inmate at the Elmwood Correctional Facility died Tuesday night, according to authorities.
Deputies found the inmate, described as a 30-year-old man, unresponsive in his cell around 9:10 p.m., the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release. He received CPR and was taken to a hospital for further care around 9:25 p.m.
The man was pronounced dead at the hospital at 10:08 p.m., the sheriff’s office said. He was not identified Thursday.
The in-custody death is the county’s 10th of the year.
An initial investigation did not find any evidence of foul play, according to the sheriff’s office, which is probing the death with the medical examiner-coroner and district attorney’s offices.
The San Jose Police Department booked the man into jail on Nov. 2 for burglary as well as numerous outstanding warrants from other counties, the sheriff’s office said.
