LOS ANGELES (CNS) - Authorities today were investigating the death of model Christy Giles.
The 24-year-old was dropped off at an undisclosed hospital in the Los Angeles area and died on Saturday, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. Other details were not released by police.
Giles' cause of death has been listed as ``deferred pending additional investigation,'' the Los Angeles County coroner's office reported.
According to the New York Post, Giles was left at the hospital after a night of partying, and a woman who was described as Giles' friend was left at a separate hospital and is on life support with no brain activity.
Los Angeles police declined further comment on the case, citing the ongoing investigation.
Giles' husband, Jan Cilliers, was quoted in published reports as saying video exists of three masked men dressed in black who pulled up to the hospital and pushed the model's body out of a Toyota Prius without license plates.
