Police say Bridport man’s death is suspicious
BRIDPORT — Vermont State Police are investigating what they’re calling the “suspicious death” of a Bridport resident, whose remains were found at his Swinton Road home shortly before 9 a.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 24.
Police identified the deceased as 44-year-old Stephen Nuciolo Sr. Troopers said they received a report that he had died in the home overnight.
Nuciolo’s body was taken to the Chief Medical Examiner’s Office in Burlington; police were not sure if his death was by natural causes, accidental, self-inflicted or the result of foul play. Following an examination on Thursday, Jan. 25, the medical examiner informed state police that the death appears suspicious.
Police provided no additional details and promised to provide updates as the investigation continues.
This case is in its initial stages and involves members of the VSP’s Major Crime Unit, the Bureau of Criminal Investigations, Crime Scene Search Team, Field Force Division and Victim Services Unit.
Preliminary investigative work by the state police indicates this was an isolated event, and they said there is no known threat to the community.
Investigators ask that anyone with information on this case call the state police in New Haven at 802-388-4919. Tips also may be submitted anonymously online at vsp.vermont.gov/tipsubmit.
