Sad Day for Kucinich Family

By Matthew Mosk
Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich's youngest brother was found dead at his home in Cleveland Wednesday, the Associated Press has reported.

Perry Kucinich, 52, was found face down by another brother, Larry, at about 9 a.m., a spokesman for the Cuyahoga County Coroner's office told the wire service this afternoon. There were no signs of foul play, Caesar said. An autopsy was being performed Wednesday to determine the cause of death.

Kucinich's press secretary, Natalie Laber, told the Associated Press that the presidential contender flew immediately to Cleveland. "He was very close to Perry and he's taking this very hard," Laber said.
