ONEIDA COUNTY, N.Y. -- The cause of death has been determined for the hunter found on Friday in the Town of Paris. According to the Oneida County Sheriff's Office, Richard Knight, 64, died from hypothermia following complications with a pre-existing medical condition.

Knight was reported missing last Wednesday when he didn't come home from a day of hunting. His body was found in a field on Butler Road Friday, about half a mile from his house.
