Woman Dead After Drinking On 21st Birthday

MANKATO, Minn. (AP) ― Police say a former student at Minnesota State University, Mankato, died after a night of heavy drinking with friends on her 21st birthday.
  
Authorities identified the woman as Amanda Jax of Mayer, who had returned to Mankato to celebrate her birthday with college friends.
  
Investigators said Jax was taken to a friend's off-campus apartment after becoming intoxicated. When the friends woke up Tuesday morning, they found Jax unresponsive and called 911.
  
Police said their preliminary investigation indicated that alcohol played a significant role in her death. An autopsy was scheduled.
