Investigators found no initial indication that foul play was involved. The victim was taken to the Middlesex County Medical Examiner’s Office in order to determine his actual cause of death.

Ricigliani's obituary states that he was born in Trenton but lived in Hamilton for most of his life before moving to Long Branch two years ago. His passions are listed as music, cooking, and working out at the gym.

The 27-year-old was also an avid Green Bay Packers and New York Yankee fan, according to his obit, but most of all, he "enjoyed spending time with family and friends."

Police are asking anyone with information about the incident to contact Detective Frank Burger of the Hamilton Police Division Criminal Investigations Section at (609) 581-4010 or the Hamilton Police Crime Tip Hotline at (609) 581-4008.
