A woman who died shortly after drinking a suspected poisoned mushroom beverage at a wellness centre in Australia has been revealed to be a New Zealander.
It is understood the 53-year-old went into cardiac arrest and could not be revived. Two other people who were at the centre at the same time were rushed to hospital. They were discharged yesterday, according to local media.
Officers investigating the death are examining whether the drink Dixon took contained mushrooms, the Age newspaper reported.
‘Love you infinity, Mum’
Her son Matthew took to Facebook to pay tribute to his mother, who he described as a supportive mum.
“To the most loving, most caring person I’ve ever known. Can’t thank you enough for everything you did for me and all the support you gave me,” he wrote.
