Inmate apparently slips on own

KINGMAN - A Mohave County jail inmate who apparently defecated on his cell floor, slipped in it and struck his head on the ground died Wednesday.

Rodney Ernest Oberg, 49, had been in a coma since Monday's incident. Jarrod Lyman, a Mohave County sheriffs' spokesman, said foul play had been ruled out because Oberg was alone in the cell.

Oberg had been arrested by Bullhead City police and charged with trespassing last week. He was transported to Mohave County Medical Center before being flown to St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix.

Think it needs a bit more info - like why he defecated on the floor. Has all the potential to be a DA
