An investigation is underway into the death of a man who suffered ultimately fatal injuries prior to an altercation between family members at a Thermal home, a sheriff’s sergeant said Tuesday.

Sheriff’s deputies who responded at 7:27 a.m. Monday to a family disturbance call at a home in the 65000 block of Harrison Street found a 35-year-old man being restrained by family members, Sgt. Ben Ramirez said.
