WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- The family of a Manitoba man who died after spending the night outdoors is devastated and still has questions about what led him into the cold.
Clifford Beaulieu, 42, was spending time with some friends at a home in the Rural Municipality of St. Francis Xavier, Manitoba. Feb. 4. He left and never returned.
"I know he froze from the elements and that, but why let him leave the house like that, and not, you know, check on him, see where he went?" said Martin Beaulieu, Clifford's brother.
Beaulieu was sent to hospital after being found outdoors by police the next day. He died in hospital.
Martin said the group had been drinking and that Clifford left the house after an argument broke out.
"They told me that he was intoxicated when he left the house, but he was also angry at them and when he left, he just, like, he walked away angry," said Martin. "Still, no matter what, you don't let a person walk out in the cold like that."
Beaulieu was part of a Canada’s National Deaf Curling team. The team will compete in the 2015 Winter Deaflympics in Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia - March 28 to April 5, 2015.
