Charges were filed against a Kane man in the death of an unnamed Kane man that occurred in August. 35 year old Michael Cunningham has been charged with Drug Delivery Resulting in Death, Involuntary Manslaughter, Delivery of a Controlled Substance, Criminal Use of a Communication Device, and Recklessly Endangering Another Person.
The charges stem from an incident on August 11, 2022 when Police, Fire and Ambulance services were dispatched to a residence on Edgar James Street in Kane for an unresponsive man who was pronounced dead. The victims name is being withheld by the DA out of respect for his family. The matter was referred to the State Police for further investigation and the cause of death was determined to be Fentanyl Toxicity.
Cunningham was arraigned and remanded to the McKean County Jail in lieu of $500,000 bail.
