An American woman sat dead at her office desk for a day without anyone noticing.

Rebecca Wells, 51, passed away while in her cubicle in the Los Angeles County Department of Internal Services, but wasn't discovered until a security guard found her slumped over her desk the next afternoon.

Co-worker Hattie Robertson said: "I came in Saturday to do a little work, and I saw them when they were taking her out."

The last time anyone saw Rebecca alive was 9am on the morning of her death.

Investigators have not determined the official cause of death, but they say foul play is not suspected.
