A San Diego State University student was found dead in her apartment Sunday morning, 10News reported.

Friends said they believe partying Saturday night led to her death.

“It’s San Diego State and it’s known for partying. Many of the kids here don’t know, they don’t think. They think the worst thing is a hangover,” said Adam Pozak, a friend of Poliakoff.

Toxicology reports should detail what was in Poliakoff’s system the night she died, but the report might not be available for several weeks.
