The Boone Police Department on Sunday released the names of a child who died at a Boone hotel Saturday and his mother, who was injured.

Police are still investigating the cause of death of 11-year-old Jeffrey Lee Williams of Rock Hill, S.C., and an injury that hospitalized his mother, 49-year-old Jeannie Williams of Rock Hill, at Best Western Plus Blue Ridge Plaza.

Sgt. Shane Robbins of the Boone Police Department said Sunday that he does not have a time frame on the autopsy report for Jeffrey Williams. 

Just before 12:30 p.m. Saturday, Boone police and fire department personnel and Watauga Medics were called to the Best Western in reference to a medical emergency report indicating that two persons were in distress, according to a release from BPD. 

Upon first responders' arrival, the son was determined dead; the mother was taken by ambulance to Watauga Medical Center for treatment.

Police said Sunday that investigators continue to work at the Best Western, located at 840 E. King St., to determine the sequence of events and cause of the medical emergencies.

"We have been able to determine that there is no danger to the general public," a release stated Sunday. "The investigation and testing is ongoing. At this time we do not anticipate any additional release of information until at least Tuesday, June 11, 2013.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this very difficult time."

Investigators discovered that this is the same location and room where two elderly people where found deceased on April 16, 2013.

 

"While no evidence has been discovered that these incidents are related, investigators continue to explore all possibilities," police said.

Watauga County GIS records indicate the property is owned by AJD Investments Inc. The hotel is among several hotel businesses of the family of the late Ashok Patel, according to remarks Patel made at a December 2012 Boone Town Council meeting. Patel died in January.

A call to the Best Western Sunday was forwarded to the Country Inn and Suites. A hotel manager said the hotel group has no comment at this time.

Scott Davis is senior pastor of Northside Baptist Church in Rock Hill, S.C., where the Williamses attend church.

"While no evidence has been discovered that these incidents are related, investigators continue to explore all possibilities," police said.

"Boone Police investigators have renewed their request for the toxicology and autopsy results from the North Carolina Office of the Chief Medical Examiner concerning the April 16, 2013, deaths that occurred in the same room," police said Monday. "As of this morning, those reports remain unavailable."  

"We would like to commend all of the agencies that have responded to assist the town of Boone during this investigation," Boone Police Chief Dana Crawford and Fire Chief Jimmy Isaacs said in a joint statement. "We are committed to finding the cause of this tragic event."

Boone police remain on the scene of what they're calling a suspicious death at a local hotel.

Shortly after noon Saturday, authorities were called to the Best Western Hotel on East King Street after two people were found unresponsive inside one of the rooms.

When authorities arrived, they found one person dead, and another person was transported to a local hospital.

On Sunday police identified the deceased as 11-year-old Jeffrey Williams of Rock Hill. Williams mother, Jeannie Davis remains in the hospital as of Sunday evening.

Emergency crews remained on the scene for more than 10 hours looking for clues into the mysterious death.

Back in April, an elderly couple was found dead inside the same hotel room.

Police say they have no idea if the deaths are related.

They're still awaiting autopsy results to determine that. Meanwhile, the Best Western evacuated its hotel and moved people to nearby hotels.

Josh Ricker is visiting Boone from Ohio.

He returned from a graduation only to discover he couldn't get back inside his hotel.

"There was a bunch of fire trucks, we couldn't get in there," Ricker said. Boone police say there are no health concerns for residents in the area.

Eyewitness News is working on obtaining more information on this incident.

Doing a little research of my own, it appears that the elderly couple, that died in april, were hastily cremated after their death. Also, bizarrely, their death wasn't reported by any news source in the Boone area, despite the irregularity of the circumstances. 

 

I'm guessing some sort of gas leak. But who knows.

 

Ashok is likely going to get his ass sued off. I used to work for him almost a decade ago. I worked night laundry for what was then the Quality Inn, and is now the sorority dorm for App State.

Madalin Ciculescu, an attorney in Romania, was plagued with foul-smelling demons in his house who constantly turned his electrical gadgets on and off. So he hired four local Orthodox priests to exorcise them. In his lawsuit, Ciculescu argues that they didn't finish the job:

'When I am at home they switch the TV on and off all the time, they make foul smells that give me headaches and basically roam unhindered around my house and my business.

The man produced his mother to back up his claim saying that even the hair-dryer was possessed and a black shadow came out of it when anyone tried to use it - and she also said the fridge was infested by the flatulent demons that she confirmed left foul smells about the property.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I mean, but there is ample evidence that exists currently in the NFL and historically that if you have a talented or moderately talented team then one of the biggest upgrades you can make is at QB. It yields the biggest returns. I don't think even Prime Greg Olsen is going to make Bryce suddenly look like a stud QB. We have invested immense amounts of money on the OL and tremendous amounts of draft resources on WR's. And have added an additional extremely capable RB. At some point, the main problem is Bryce. We are at that point.  That being said, we don't need to go "Full Bryce" again and sell the farm to upgrade at QB. Be intelligent and patient. Try to get better by whatever means become available WHILE continuing to make the roster better. At the bare minimum, you slowly build an upper half of the NFL talented roster that is at least a potential draw for some free agent QB's. IMO, Bryce is clearly not the answer. I don't think anyone in our organization thinks that way but if they do, it's not the end of the world. Throw as many reasonable darts as you can through free agency and the draft until either you get a bullseye or a top 10-15 option becomes available in free agency.

      I think the best way to make Bryce better is to make everyone around him better.  This is why I advocate for a stud (top 5, eventually) TE.  I mean, when we have been a good franchise, we have had a stud TE (Walls, Olsen) and ILB (Beason, Mills, Morgan, Luke, etc) so it is in our DNA.  Expect us to address these areas this year.  (An Olsen or Walls would help Bryce a lot).  In terms of productivity, I think we are going to work with XL for one more season and ride the TMac / Coker momentum.  Where else could we find a position to improve productivity?  TE.  A position that caters to Bryce's style and shortcomings, a stud TE gives him another weapon he has not had. The Panthers run a lot of 2-TE sets (I have seen 3) and they have a blocker (Tremble) who is great in the run game, a balanced TE (Evans), and Sanders is supposed to be the pass-catching TE. He had 340 yards last season and he has about 170 this year.  If we are going to play around with XL for another season, it only makes up to add to Bryce's weapons in a way that does not put XL on the bench, basically ending his development. It makes sense to bring in a pass-catching dawg.  The way the offense is designed, I see carrying 4, but its not ideal. Having said that, I mentioned Oregon's Sadiq in another thread, but I am starting to warm up to Vanderbilt's Stowers and, in the Olsen/Walls mold, I kinda like Endries from Texas.  Of course, Stowers is probably going in round 2 and Endries in 3 or later. I still say, 5 months before the draft, that I would not be surprised if we take a TE very early.
