American inmate Krista Pike regained consciousness following a failed execution attempt, Kommersant reports, citing CNN.
According to the source, Pike survived the administration of two lethal doses of pentobarbital — a drug used in executions in a number of US states.
Pike was sentenced to death for a murder committed in 1995, according to the source.
The incident raises questions about the protocol and practice of lethal injection in the United States, where cases of delays or procedural failures during executions have previously been reported.
Pike's fate and any possible actions by state authorities in connection with the incident have not yet been clarified.
