CAPE CORAL, Fla. -- Police are investigating the death of a Cape Coral man who died last week. They are trying to find out if a car crash he was involved in the week before contributed to his death.

According to Cape Coral Police, on September 28, 2019, Russel Scott was driving in the 4100 block of Skyline Boulevard when a car pulled out from a driveway, causing a collision.
