Inmate death under investigation

The weekend death of an Oconee Detention Center inmate will require an autopsy the first of this week to assist the coroner in determining the cause of death.  Michael Calvin McMahan was a 24-year-old Salem resident.  Around 5:30 Saturday morning deputies responded to reports of a cardiac arrest and found McMahan unresponsive while they were serving breakfast.  Life-saving measures were attempted.  Following protocol, the state police, the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division, responded as part of the investigation.
