Los Angeles, Feb 1 (IANS): Late singer Whitney Houston's daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown was found unresponsive in a bathtub, nearly three years after her star mother died in the same manner.

The 21-year-old was rushed to North Fulton Hospital Saturday morning after she was found unconscious in a tub full of water by her husband Nick Gordon and a friend at her townhouse in a Roswell subdivision, reports aceshowbiz.com.

According to a representative for the Roswell, Georgia police department, Brown is “still alive and breathing”.

“He started CPR (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and a police officer took over life-saving measures until an ambulance arrived. She was transported to the hospital. Please keep her and the family in your thoughts and prayers," the representative said.

Three years ago, a grieving Brown was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center days after her mother's death.

She is Houston's only daughter with ex-husband Bobby Brown. The late singer was found drowning in a bathtub in a suite at the Beverly Hilton hotel Feb 11, 2012.
