The death of the man and injuries to another person were “due to a possible electric discharge when both were inside the jacuzzi,” according to a a social media post from the General Prosecutor’s Office of Justice for the state of Sonora.
They were identified as American citizens of Mexican origin by the prosecutor’s office. What caused the electrical failure, which happened at around 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, is still being investigated, authorities said.
