Aberdeen man set on fire dies of burns

An 41-year-old Aberdeen man who was beaten and set on fire last week has died of his wounds.

ABERDEEN, Wash. —

An 41-year-old Aberdeen man who was beaten and set on fire last week has died of his wounds.

Grays Harbor County Undersheriff Rick Scott says Marlon Lee died Monday night at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.

He was found along a road Nov. 18 by a man driving to work and dropped off at Grays Harbor Community Hospital in Aberdeen. The Good Samaritan driver didn't realize the extent of Lee's injuries. He was transferred to the Seattle hospital and never regained consciousness.

Detectives are asking for help from anyone with information about the case.

KXRO radio reports that a man arrested Thursday by U.S. marshals in a fugitive roundup is a person of interest who was seen at a casino with Lee.
