The investigation agency is investigating whether the hamster killed him.
According to foreign media such as the Daily Mail, a 38-year-old Colombian woman was found collapsed in front of a health center in Villarreal, Casteyon, Spain, at 10:30 p.m. on the 11th (local time).
Local media MediTerano reported that she visited the emergency room after being bitten by a pet hamster.
Medical staff rushed to help her and tried CPR, but could not save her life.
It is not clear if an autopsy has been performed, but results are usually not disclosed in Spain.
Local police are investigating her death.
Occasionally rare, rabies and bacterial infections can be transmitted when bitten by an infected hamster.
According to the Daily Mail, there have been reports in the past that an allergic person was taken to a hospital with severe shortness of breath after being bitten by a hamster.
In May 2007, a British man almost lost his life in anaphylactic shock after being bitten by a hamster.
This caused a huge stir at the time, with an official from the Hamster Association of England claiming that `I've been raising hamsters for 20 years, but this is the first time such a situation has occurred.''Hamsters usually do not transmit diseases that can affect humans.'
