(NEWS CENTER) - Investigators are being tight-lipped about the details of a suspicious death in Old Orchard Beach on Saturday. The body of 49 year-old Roger White was discovered behind a bar on Saturday morning. His sister says police told her he was stabbed, but no official cause of death has been released.
Wendy Foster says she is still in disbelief that her cousin is gone. She says she never saw this coming.
Foster says her entire family grew up in Old Orchard Beach, and White has lived there his entire life. She says he was well known, and well-liked around town. He frequented The Whaler, the bar close to where his body was found. So when Foster learned there had been a suspicious death nearby, she feared that it could be Roger.
"He wasn't a fighter, and he was always happy, and he never said anything mean to anybody," she said, explaining one of the reasons his death is hard to accept, "He was a happy-go-lucky guy."
Police have not released autopsy results, and have not made any arrests in the case.
