Two people died and an estimated 19 others were taken to hospitals after being overcome while sitting in a sauna-like sweat lodge at a Sedona retreat on Thursday night.
About 50 people were in a "sweatbox" type structure located at the Angel, a facility which provides spiritual retreats, Yavapai County sheriff's spokesman Dwight D'Evelyn said on Friday.
Many people began feeling ill after about two hours in the sweat box.
