INDIO, Calif. (AP) - Authorities are trying to determine whether drugs or alcohol caused the death of a woman who collapsed last weekend at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Southern California.
The Riverside County coroner’s office says 24-year-old Kimchi Truong of Oakland was at the festival in Indio on Saturday when she collapsed. She died at a hospital on Thursday.
The cause of death wasn’t clear pending an autopsy and toxicology tests.
However, coroner’s Sgt. Curt James tells the Desert Sun of Palm Springs (https://bit.ly/1mjUrqB ) that investigators haven’t ruled out a drug overdose.
Concert promoter Goldenvoice issued a statement saying the festival attendee suffered “an apparent overdose.”
