A woman was found unresponsive in a Hinckley hotel bathtub Saturday night, the Pine County Sheriff's Office said.
On April 11 at 10:44 p.m., Pine County 911 received a call requesting medical assistance at the America's Best Hotel. Police initially learned that a female may have been drowning in a bathtub.
Upon arrival, deputies and ambulance personnel found a woman from Wisconsin in her 50s, unresponsive. Life-saving measures were initiated and the woman was airlifted to a hospital in the Twin Cities. The woman later died in the hospital.
A person accompanying the woman told police she had been consuming alcohol before the incident and it is unclear at this time if she suffered a medical condition while in the tub.
The woman's body was transferred to the medical examiner's office and autopsy results are pending. Identification is being withheld, pending family notification.
