An elderly woman was found alive in a coffin in Ecuador.

“I lifted the coffin, her heart was pounding, her left hand was hitting the coffin… We called 911 to take her to the hospital,” her son Gilberto Barbera said in a video posted on social media.

In the video, people are seen waiting and assisting Bella Montoya as emergency services arrive at the scene, taking the 76-year-old woman back to the hospital. According to the Ecuadorian Ministry of Health , a state investigation is currently underway.

They said the woman was admitted to the hospital on Friday with suspected stroke and cardiopulmonary arrest, and after she did not respond to resuscitation procedures, an attending physician declared her dead.

Ecuador's Ministry of Health said Montoya is receiving intensive care at Martín Icaza Hospital in Babahoyo – the same facility that initially declared her dead. Her current condition is unclear.

The Ecuadorian Ministry of Health announced that, in coordination with the Agency for Quality Assurance of Health Services, a national technical committee has been established “to begin a medical review to determine responsibility for the alleged confirmation of death.”
