Maryland State Police are investigating the second death of a patient at the Clifton T. Perkins Hospital in Jessup in less than a week.
A hospital staffer found the male patient dead in his room at about 8 p.m. Thursday. Investigators say they don’t know what caused his death -- or if it was a homicide -- but are considering all possibilities.
Saturday, officials said 24-year-old patient Vitaly Davydov killed his roommate, 22-year-old David Rico-Noyola. Davydov was placed at the facility following the 2006 murder of his Bethesda-based psychiatrist.
As for Thursday’s death, police are withholding that man’s identity until his family is notified.
