LAKE COUNTY, Fla. —  A person barricaded inside a recreational vehicle in Lake County near Lake Louisa State Park early Wednesday has died, sheriff's deputies said.

Deputies said they suspect the man, identified as 37-year-old Richard William, overdosed on drugs. Deputies said his last known address was in Ocala. 

Officials are waiting for the Medical Examiners Office to release the official cause of death. 

Earlier Wednesday morning, deputies shut down U.S. Highway 27 in both directions while they tried to negotiation with William, who they said was barricaded inside a stolen recreational vehicle from Flagler County. 

No other information has been released at this time.
