AMHERST — University of Massachusetts campus police found a college sophomore dead in his room on Saturday afternoon.

University spokesman Daniel Fitzgibbons said Evan Jones, 19, of Milton, was found in his fourth floor dorm room in Washington Tower in the Southwest dormitories around 1 p.m.

"His death is not considered suspicious and there was no foul play," Fitzgibbons said.

He said there was no criminal investigation conducted, however, campus police made sure the building was safe and secure.

Since Jones' death was unattended the state medical examiner will be conducting an autopsy, he said.

Counseling is available for students and faculty who may need assistance, Fitzgibbons said.
