Adan Manzano, a 27-year-old sports reporter from Kansas City, was found dead in his hotel room in Kenner, Louisiana, days before Super Bowl LIX. Police are investigating the possibility that Manzano was drugged before his death and are looking into the involvement of Danette Colbert, a 48-year-old woman who was seen with Manzano before his death. Colbert has been arrested on charges of theft and fraud.

Adan Manzano was in New Orleans to cover Super Bowl LIX, but the sports reporter was found dead in his hotel room before kickoff. Police are trying to figure out what happened and what, if anything, “a career criminal” police say is known to run fraud schemes in the city’s French Quarter had to do with his death. The 27-year-old sports reporter had been working for the local Telemundo station in Kansas City for nearly four years and came to New Orleans to report on the big game.

… More than an unrivaled journalist, he was a loving father, a friend, a brother and a great human being,” Telemundo said. Manzano’s wife died in a car accident last year, and he had a 2-year-old daughter who lives with his in-laws in Topeka, Kansas, according to Steve Downing, the general manager of Telemundo Kansas City.
