The 31-year-old man, whose name has not been released, was found dead in his cell Saturday afternoon, according to a statement from the Fremont County Sheriff's Office.

The sheriff's office, Lander Police Department and Fremont County Coroner's Office are investigating.

Further details were not immediately available Tuesday afternoon.
