April 23, 2012 (Boulevard) – Geoffrey O’Conley, 65, of Boulevard died April 21 from injuries sustained in what initially seemed to be a minor traffic accident, the San Diego Medical Examiner reports.  The accident occurred April 3 on Highway 94 east of Buckman Springs in Campo. 

O’Conley complained of chest pains and was transported to UCSD Medical Examiner, where staff found he sustained multiple left-sided rib fractures.  He declined until his death.

The Medical Examiner found cause of death to be complications following fractures of left ribs and hemothorax due to blunt force chest trauma, though coronary artery atherosclerosis and liver disease were found to be complicating factors.
