Minneapolis police say a Columbus woman died Tuesday after falling into a creek fed by Minnehaha Falls. 

26-year-old Deeqa Mohamed was at the falls in south Minneapolis on June 17 when she lost her footing and landed facedown in the creek, where her foot stuck got stuck under a rock. The current kept her from getting her head above water.  An area coroner ruled the cause of death was drowning.
