Cops: Man broke into Muskegon house, died from blood loss

Police say a man not seen for nearly a week apparently died inside a vacant Muskegon house after breaking a window and cutting himself on glass.

Lavonte Moses suffered a significant loss of blood.

The body of the 22-year-old was discovered Monday by construction workers.

His girlfriend last talked to him on Feb. 8.

The Muskegon Chronicle says police believe Moses was alone in the house.

The house was locked but a window on the first floor was broken.

Moses' girlfriend, Ashley Smedley, reported him missing Saturday. She says she knew "something was not right."

They had three children.
