MILPITAS \u2014 A 19-year-old male inmate died after suffering a medical emergency over the weekend at the Elmwood Correctional Facility in Milpitas, according to authorities.<\/p>\n
The man was found unconscious around 11:35 p.m. Saturday, the Santa Clara County Sheriff\u2019s Office said in a news release. He initially had a pulse and was breathing.<\/p>\n
Deputies gave him several doses of Narcan, a medicine that rapidly reverses opioid overdoses, and began CPR, the sheriff\u2019s office said. Life-saving efforts continued and were handed off to emergency medical services personnel when they arrived at the scene.<\/p>\n
Despite continued efforts to revive him, the man was pronounced dead at 12:15 a.m. Sunday, the sheriff\u2019s office said. His identity will be released after his next of kin is notified.<\/p>\n

The sheriff\u2019s office is investigating the death alongside the district attorney\u2019s and coroner\u2019s offices.<\/p>\n
\u201cA careful internal review is underway as part of our ongoing commitment to accountability and professional standards,\u201d the sheriff\u2019s office said in the news release.<\/p>\n
