A man died at a local business Monday. Authorities say no foul play was involved.

Effingham city police received a call about noon of an unresponsive man on the ground near a semi at Sherwin Williams Distribution Center. Police and emergency medical services reached the scene and determined the man, 56-year-old Wesley Shipp of Wyanet, Illinois, was dead and requested the coroner's office also respond to the scene. Effingham County Coroner Duane Guffey responded and pronounced Shipp dead.

An autopsy into the death will be conducted today.
