Yes, Giovanni, this is serious. Last night in Northern Wisconsin a
sleepwalker froze to death.
"The cold claimed a victim in Sawyer County, where a 51-year-old sleepwalker died from exposure after wandering from his rural Hayward home early Tuesday.
Chief Deputy Tim Zeigle of the Sawyer County Sheriff's Department said the man was found about 190 yards from his house. His son, who reported him missing late Tuesday morning, said the man was prone to sleepwalking.
Deputies followed tracks of his bare feet in the snow to find him.
"He had been in bed and walked outside. He had on very few clothes," said Zeigle, who declined to release the man's name until relatives had been notified."
Dangerous weather.
