A mother of three died at a hospital on Tuesday after she was discovered unconscious with rosary beads stuffed down her throat.
Police had arrested her boyfriend earlier in the day after he was seen walking outside naked, screaming about the devil and mumbling about her “being with God now,” according to 1010WINS.
The woman was identified as 33-year old Hellen Hernandez, according to ABC7. Her teenage son discovered her in the hallway of her building in the Bronx neighborhood of New York City, a close family friend told CBS.
Hernandez was unconscious and unresponsive when emergency medical services (EMS) arrived at 5:25 PM, according to the New York Daily News. The first responders discovered the rosary beads in her throat as they attempted to perform CPR to resuscitate her. She also had scratches and bruised on her face.
