An inmate at Westmoreland County Prison was found dead Thursday morning.

The Westmoreland County Coroner’s Office says Terry Brumley was found unresponsive around 6:45 a.m. in a cell.

Brumley is pleaded guilty last month to criminal trespass and other charges.

He was sentenced to one and a half to three years in prison.

An autopsy will be performed on Friday.

No other information was released.

Prison Warden Bryan Kline resigned Monday, ahead of a prison board meeting.

Kline says he stepped down to work in academia and do research. His resignation is effective October 2.

The Tribune-Review reports Steven Pelesky has been named interim warden.
