A Penn State Student, Joseph Dado, who has been found dead on campus. The student is apparently the victim of a tragic accident that has already taken people from the University campus by surprise.
He had been missing for more than a day. The unfortunate news came late on Monday when the body of Joseph Dado was discovered. This is a very sad ending to the life of Josheph, and an extremely tragic event that seems like it could have been avoided. It's also a terrible way for the campus to open its new school year, but that is a minor detail in this story.
He was an 18 year old Freshman at Penn State University who had been majoring in engineering. He had recently graduated from Greater Latrobe Senior High Shool according to KDKA News out of Pittsburgh, and was on campus for his first yeat as a student.
Early reports are indicating that he fell about 15 feet down the stairwell, but that has yet to be confirmed by the investigation that is sure to be on-going. Whether alcohol was involved or not is also surely going to be a question asked by the authorities as they try to piece together Dado's last few hours.
