意外溺水

A Canadian tourist whose body was discovered in a water tank atop a downtown
Los Angeles hotel four months ago died in an accidental drowning, coroner's
officials said Thursday.
A maintainence worker discovered the body of Elisa Lam, 21, on Feb. 19 after
residents of the Cecil Hotel complained about low water pressure. At the
time Lam had been missing for several weeks from the hotel after traveling
there from Vancouver.
Los Angeles County coroner's officials said her bipolar disorder was a
significant condition, but did not elaborate.
Coroner's officials noted that the medical examination found no visible
signs of trauma on the body and toxicology tests found nothing that
contributed to her death.
Lam had been missing for three weeks before being found. During that time,
detectives with the LAPD's Robbery-Homicide Division appealed to the public
for help in the case that included the release of video of her inside a
Cecil Hotel elevator. In surveillance footage, Lam could be seen pushing
buttons for multiple floors and at one point stepping out of the elevator
and waving her arms.
The only ways to get to the roof are via a locked door that only employees
have access to and a fire escape. The door is equipped with an alarm system
that notifies hotel personnel if someone is on the roof, Los Angeles police
Sgt. Rudy Lopez said.
Lam's case inspired amateur sleuths to post numerous theories on websites
about what might have happened to her. International media outlets,
particularly in Canada and China, have also continued their coverage of the
story.
Much of the speculation focuses on the surveillance video of Lam in the
hotel elevator. The video has gone viral on the Chinese video site Youku.com
, with more than 3 million views and 40,000 comments in a 10-day span.
Many commenters said they were disturbed by the tape, with one calling it "
spooky."
"I knew about Elisa Lam but this is the first time I saw the video," one
wrote. "I'm so scared, I'm shaking. I'm numb."
The case is not the first recent L.A.-based investigation to attract Chinese
attention. Last year's shooting deaths of two Chinese graduate students
near USC brought Chinese media to the university and county courtrooms, and
drew strong reactions overseas.
