| 713 | 28 June 1947 Tonawanda News Authorities Probe Death of NT Youth On Grand Island Possibility that he may have died from poisoning was raised today by Erie County Medical authorities as they probed the death of Alfred Kasprzak, 20-year-old Navy veteran of 14 Miller street, North Tonawanda, whose body was discovered on the banks of the East river on Grand Island. According to Dr. A. Wagner, medical examiner, preliminary autopsy revealed no apparent cause for death, and therefore "there is some indication that death may have been caused by poisoning." Laboratory investigation will be continued, he added. The autopsy showed the youth had suffered no external violence and that he had not been swimming at the time of his death, according to the medical examiner. Kasprzak was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Ignatz Kasprzak, of the Miller street address. According to Lt. Anselm Carroll and Deputy Ted Shook, of the Erie County Sheriff's office, Kasprzak's body was discovered between E. River road and the river, north of the Harvey road, by Mrs. Mabel Leibinger, of the E. River road. Mrs. Leibinger was quoted as saying she passed by the spot where Kasprzak's body was found on Thursday evening, and saw him lying face down in the bushes. Thinking he was merely resting on the riverbank, she paid no attention. Passing the area last night, however, she again saw the body and immediately reported it to the Sheriff's office. The youth served in the Navy during World War II, and received a medical discharge, according to his parents. He later was a patient at the Batavia Veterans Hospital for three months, being discharged in March. He was a member of Tonawandas Post 264, American Legion. In addition to his parents, survivors include: four brothers, Edward, John, Theodore and Stanley; four sisters, Mrs. Fay Dennick of Ira, N. Y., Mrs. Stanley J. Smith, Mrs. Felix S.
