Woman Who Was Declared "Dead" Found Breathing At Long Island Funeral Home
The bizarre case unfolded when the 82-year-old woman was pronounced dead at 11:15 a.m. Saturday at the Water’s Edge Rehab and Nursing Center in Port Jefferson.
But after being transported to the O.B. Davis Funeral Home in Miller Place, the woman was found to be breathing shortly after 2 p.m., police said.
FuneralHome staffers made the shocking discovery and the octogenarian was then brought to an area hospital, Suffolk County police said. Her current condition is unknown.
It’s unclear if the woman was declared dead in error or if she experienced a medical episode that could have contributed to her apparent resurrection.
The case has been referred to the New York State Attorney’s Office
