A College of the Redwoods student died this morning after being found unresponsive in her dormitory room, located on the school’s main campus, a college spokesperson confirmed to the Outpost this afternoon.

The student, whose identity has not yet been released, was taken by ambulance to Providence St. Joseph Hospital in Eureka, where hospital staff were unable to resuscitate her, according to Molly Blakemore, CR’s director of marketing and communications.

“Local authorities are currently investigating the cause of death and we are working with them to determine the events and circumstances surrounding the event,” Blakemore said via email.

We will update this post when and if any further information comes in.
