Abonesh Woldegeorges, 73, was found about 7 a.m. After immediate resuscitation efforts she was taken to the hospital, where she died.
A 73-year-old woman died Sunday after she was found unresponsive in a cell at the Arlington County jail, police said.
Woldegeorges was arrested and charged with trespassing Aug. 13 by the agency that operates Reagan National Airport, according to police. Online court records of the arrest indicated that she had no fixed address. Hers is the first death to occur in the facility since Acting Sheriff Jose Quiroz took over the jail in January. His predecessor, Beth Arthur, had served in the role for more than two decades and drew intense scrutiny from the Arlington NAACP and criminal justice advocacy groups over that string of deaths, which included six Black men.
