CABO SAN LUCAS, Mexico (AP) - A Mexican prosecutor says an Oregon tourist drowned in his own blood while in police custody.

Sam Botner of Yancalla, Oregon, was arrested on Aug. 27 in the resort of San Jose del Cabo and was later found dead in a jail cell. Prosecutors say a surveillance video shows officers beating Botner.

In an interview Thursday with The Associated Press, state prosecutor Fernando Gonzalez said Botner suffered a ruptured spleen and then died of asphyxiation after internal bleeding blocked his airway.

Six police officers are under house arrest in the death.

Prosecutors have two weeks to determine whether they will bring charges in the case.
