Intoxication Suspected in Deaths of Southern California Couple at Mexican Resort

Paramedics responding to the scene where two tourists from Newport Beach were found dead in their luxury hotel room in Mexico this week, said they began to feel "intoxication symptoms such as hypoxia and racing heartbeat." The victims had no vital signs when the paramedics entered the room at Hyatt's Rancho Pescadero on Mexico's Baja California peninsula on Tuesday night. The cause of death was "intoxication by substance to be determined," the attorney general's office said in a statement on Thursday.
