Escondido man, 24, found dead in cell at Vista Detention Facility

VISTA - A 24-year-old Escondido man was found unresponsive in his cell at the Vista Detention Facility and pronounced dead, authorities said

today.

Deputies discovered Ronaldino Estrada at about 10:30 a.m. Monday, according to the San Diego County Sheriff's Department.

Medics took Estrada to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

He was in a cell with a cellmate, but there was no evidence of foul play, sheriff's officials said. Estrada was jailed on Friday after being arrested by sheriff's deputies on suspicion of DUI causing bodily injury.
