According to the publication, 36-year-old influencer and bodybuilder Luz Maria Barrera Agaton was found dead at the bottom of the pool of the Coco Resort & Villas hotel in Motul, near Cancun. The tragedy occurred on the morning of June 1 after an evening she spent with friends and family. After midnight, everyone went to bed, leaving her on the hotel grounds. When the woman did not return for a long time, they went to look for her - and found her in the pool without signs of life.
Paramedics tried to resuscitate Luz Maria, but to no avail. The police have launched an investigation and stated that they "do not rule out foul play".
Fitness blogger threatened shortly before death
According to local media, this happened just two weeks after someone hung a banner with threats near the gym in Merida, which the blogger visited. According to acquaintances, the influencer removed the banner and destroyed it without contacting the police.

Last year, a young man died in Agaton's gym. A barbell fell on him - according to the media, due to a trainer's mistake. Investigators are currently выясняють whether these events may be related to her death.
