Seth Brabant, 24, of Chesaning in Saginaw County, died on Thursday, according to officials at Vanderbilt Medical Center in Nashville.

Police said Brabant was discovered beaten on the side of a dirt road four days earlier. Stewart County Sheriff's Department has arrested a second man on attempted murder charges. Those charges are likely to change now that Brabant has died, an official at the sheriff's office said.

The man currently is being held on a $600,000 bond.

Brabant had only been "out of the Army for a couple of months," a family member told MLive.
