HICKORY, N.C. —
Investigators believe a Hickory man may have been drinking before he fell nearly 100 feet to his death at a state park.
Elioberto Alfonso, 22, was hiking with a group off of Highway 181 early on Saturday morning at Upper Creek Falls.
Officials say Alfonso slipped into a creek he was trying to cross and was swept over the falls, where he died.
