The OPP in Red Lake are probing the death of a 46 year old woman.

Police say former Pikangikum resident Bertha Quill was found unconscious in that community and was flown to Thunder Bay where she was pronounced dead at the Health Sciences Centre early Thursday morning.

Police aren't saying anything about the cause of death.

A post-mortem exam was conducted Friday at Lake of the Woods District Hospital, but the cause of death still has not been released.
