A 19-year-old from Michigan died while vacationing in Cancun on spring break after falling from the balcony of a hotel Friday, officials said.

Ahmed Altaii fell to his death from a 7th-floor balcony at the GR Solaris hotel, the Mexican Municipal Secretariat of Public Security and Transit told the Yucatan Times.

Altaii was on a spring break trip in Mexico with his girlfriend and a group of friends at the time.

The girlfriend told authorities that her boyfriend had started drinking early in the day, the Yucatan Times reported. Officials have not yet said if that contributed to his death.
