A young US woman who was found breathing at a Detroit funeral home after being declared dead was in a body bag for around two hours before she was discovered to be alive, a lawyer said.

Twenty-year-old Timesha Beauchamp remains in critical condition at Sinai-Grace Hospital in Detroit, lawyer Geoffrey Fieger said.
