Authorities continue to work on the investigations into the death of a Marriott hotel guest who died inside the complex last weekend after falling from the eighth floor.

It was shortly after 9:00 pm when the presence of an ambulance was requested at the hotel located on Paseo de la Marina Avenue.

Officials from the Tourist Police and Paramedics from the Fire Department quickly were the first to arrive on the scene.

Upon arrival, authorities were received by the security guard who escorted them to the roof of the hotel laundry area where the body was found after falling from the eighth floor of the hotel.

It is known that the guest at the hotel was a male, Duncan Ross, originally from California.
