(KAIR)--The death of an inmate at the Lansing Correctional Facility is under investigation.
The Kansas Department of Corrections, in a news release, said 44-year-old Joshua Kaiser died early Saturday morning.
His cause of death is unknown pending the results of an investigation and autopsy. The release says the Kansas Bureau of Investigation will investigate his death, which is standard when an inmate dies in prison.
Kaiser was paroled last year after serving time for a 1993 murder and carjacking in Topeka, but was still serving time for an aggravated battery conviction out of Reno County. He was expected to be released in 2021.
