Pueblo County Sheriff's investigators do not believe a death at a medical marijuana growing operation in Pueblo County was connected to a burglary that same night.

Ken Rose, 53, was found dead at a caretaker's house in eastern Pueblo County on August 15. His death was labeled suspicious. An autopsy has revealed Rose died from a heart attack. Rose worked there as a caregiver.

The Sheriff's Office has now issued a warrant for the arrest of Andres Brown, 28, on burglary charges. Another suspect is also being sought. Officers believe they broke into a greenhouse and took marijuana plants after Rose died.

Brown is believed to be homeless, but living in Pueblo.
