Authorities are considering the death of a Philadelphia woman a homicide after she died earlier this year after getting a cosmetic butt procedure in New York, according to multiple Tuesday reports.

When authorities responded to a 911 call on June 17 for “an aided female,” officers discovered Lesbia Ayala, 48, in cardiac arrest, the NYPD told Fox News.

Ayala died after emergency services transported her to a hospital, according to police, adding that her death was deemed a homicide.

The Office of Chief Medical Examiner in New York revealed that Ayala’s cause of death was systemic silicone embolism syndrome as a result of cosmetic silicone injections of the butt and thighs, WNBC said.

The medical examiner's office confirmed those details to Fox News.
