The investigation into the death of a Wyandot County man has resulted in the arrest of his brother. 

Hardin County Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to a rural Forest home Thursday morning following a 9-1-1 transfer call from the Wyandot County Sheriff’s Office, reporting a death at the residence.  Upon their arrival, deputies found 71-year-old Wayne Breidenbach deceased. The circumstances of the death were considered suspicious.

Following the investigation, the death has been determined to be a homicide.  As a result, the victim’s brother, 68-year-old Dana Lee Breidenbach was arrested and lodged at the Multi County Correctional Center in Marion with charges pending for Involuntary Manslaughter and Using Weapons While Intoxicated.
