A Florida woman was found dead on a cruise ship while traveling to the Bahamas earlier this week and police later confiscated cocaine from her cabin, local officials say.
The 27-year-old woman, who has not been identified, was found unresponsive in her cabin Monday at around 5:30 p.m., the Royal Bahamas Police Force said in a statement.
A team of medical personnel from the ship rushed to try and revive her by performing CPR but no vital signs of life were detected, and she was declared dead, police said.
