PROVINCETOWN – Long-time resident David “Dixie” Federico died sometime Saturday night after apparently falling down the stairs at his home and breaking his neck.
Police received a call around 10 a.m. Sunday from a concerned relative, worried that Federico couldn’t be contacted and hadn’t shown up for work. Officer Rachel Peters responded to Federico’s home at 95 Bradford St. and found the body. She called the Provincetown rescue squad and the case was turned over to the Massachusetts State Police.
Brian Glenny, first assistant district attorney in the Barnstable County District Attorney’s Office, said the case is under investigation.
“Pending the autopsy, there is no suggestion of anything of a suspicious nature,” he said.
Federico had lived in Provincetown for 26 years, running twice for selectman in 2005 and 2006.
