Most who died had been ill or extremely elderly. A 93-year-old woman died after losing power to her Crestline home.
The San Bernardino County Coroner’s Office is investigating the deaths of eight San Bernardino Mountains residents that have occurred since a series of snowstorms belted the area, including that of a 93-year-old woman who a relative said appeared to be healthy and a man who had been unable to receive dialysis treatments.
“When reviewing these deaths, the preliminary assessment is only one of these had a direct correlation to the weather. The decedent died at the hospital as the result of a traffic accident during the storm,” a news release said. When Compton called on Feb. 28, Avenatti told her that the snow was preventing her from walking to her neighbor’s home.
While some have criticized the speed of the government’s response to the weather crisis, Compton said she does not blame emergency workers for her great-aunt’s death.The dialysis patient who required treatments three days a week was unable to get to them because of the snow, a friend told the Big Bear Lake City Council on Wednesday.
