MOULTRIE, Ga. — Police are investigating the death of a man whose body was found Sunday in his bathtub by a relative who became concerned after he did not answer his door and water was covering his yard.

An autopsy for William A. Stripling, 55, is scheduled for today at a Georgia Bureau of Investigation crime laboratory, Colquitt County Coroner Verlyn Brock said.

Stripling’s sister went to his residence in the 100 block of Gene McQueen Road at about 10:30 a.m. She and a friend forced a window open on a door and were able to get inside.

She found her brother unresponsive in the tub.

After the autopsy in Macon police should know more, said Jamy Steinberg, special agent in charge of the GBI’s Thomasville office. The Colquitt County Sheriff’s Office requested the agency’s assistance.

The water in the yard was believed to be from the overflowing bathtub, he said.
