CHICAGO -- Kimbery Olvera, 20, fell down the stairs and died at her home Sunday after a night of partying, officials said.
Olvera of 5421 S. Harding Ave. was found dead at her home on Sunday, according to the Cook County Medical Examiner.
She had gone out at 10 p.m. Saturday and friends told police she was at a party until 5 a.m. Sunday. She was found at 6:30 a.m. Sunday, according to Wentworth Area police Sgt. Kevin Duffin.
Olvera fell down the stairs, according to Duffin and the medical examiner's office. "There is nothing suspicious about it," the sergeant said.
An autopsy Monday found Olvera died of cervical spine injuries caused by the fall and her death was ruled accidental, according to the medical examiner.
Wentworth Area detectives are investigating.
