MYSTERY FUMES REMAIN A MYSTERY

The Riverside County coroner's office announced Friday that Gloria Ramirez died from kidney failure as a result of cervical cancer - and the fumes that sickened the emergency room staff tending her probably were simply the smell of death.

Chief Deputy County Coroner Dan Cupido said no ``external toxins'' were found in her body. County Coroner Scotty Hill said Ramirez died of natural causes after all, the specific cause of death being ``cardiac dysrhythmia due to acute renal failure due to cervical carcinoma.''
