A tragic incident has occurred at a luxury Mexican resort, where a 28-year-old woman from California, Abby Lutz, and her companion, John Heathco, were found dead in their shared room. The Baja California Sur Attorney General’s office, as reported by ABC News, has identified carbon monoxide poisoning due to “improper venting” at the resort as a possible cause of death. The Associated Press also reported that gas inhalation is suspected to be the cause of their deaths.
To support the return of Abby Lutz’s body and cover funeral expenses, a GoFundMe page has been set up. The page suggests that the couple initially believed they had food poisoning and sought medical treatment but started feeling better before their tragic demise.
Abby Lutz’s loved ones have expressed their deep sorrow and shock at her death, describing her as having an adventurous spirit and a kind heart. They ask for thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
The State Department is closely monitoring the local authorities’ investigation and is ready to provide any necessary consular assistance. The hotel’s general manager, Henar Gil, has stated that there is no evidence of violence related to this incident and assures guests of their safety.
Unfortunately, this is not the first incident of its kind. Last year, three Americans staying at a vacation resort in the Bahamas also died from carbon monoxide poisoning. The authorities later confirmed the cause of their deaths.
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas that is colorless and odorless. When inhaled, it interferes with the body’s ability to use oxygen properly. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include headaches, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, chest pain, weakness, and disorientation.
It is essential to be aware of the dangers posed by carbon monoxide and to take necessary precautions to ensure the safety and well-being of travelers.
