WINONA, MINN. - Police say foul play isn't suspected in the death of a Winona State student who was found dead in an off-campus apartment.

Authorities were called around 9:30 a.m. Friday and found the 20-year-old woman unresponsive in bed. Her name wasn't immediately released.

An autopsy was scheduled.

Three Winona State students have died since Thanksgiving. The others were Lee Wells, 20, of Sparta, Wis., who was killed in a car crash and Jared Stene, 22, of Woodbury, who died from complications of liver failure.

Winona police did not release further details.

The university posted a notice on its website saying that the school's counseling services were available to those affected by the death.
