Police investigating after 3 Americans found dead at Bahamas hotel, 4th airlifted to hospital

Three U.S. tourists have died at a resort in the Bahamas after falling ill, officials of the Atlantic island nation confirmed, and another was airlifted to a hospital for treatment.

Acting Prime Minister Chester Cooper issued a statement Friday saying that police are investigating and the cause of death was unknown, though foul play "is not suspected."

Their identities were not initially made public, but the Royal Bahamas Police Force released a statement indicating they were investigating the deaths of two men and a woman.
