New Jersey Man Hufffing Inhalants While Ridng a Motorized Wheelchair
Via the Newark Advocate in New Jersey:
Twice in two days police have responded for a report
of a man riding a motorized wheelchair while abusing inhalants.
On June 29th officers responding to the
report found a man inside a home huffing computer duster. They noticed the
wheelchair outside contained cans of computer duster and they heard “what sounded
like the dispensing of an aerosol can coming from inside the apartment.” Through the screen door they saw the man
huffing and when they tried to handcuff him he took the “can with his free
hand, put it in his mouth and inhaled the contents once more.” He was treated
at the hospital but not arrested.
The following morning at 6:15 am, police responded to the call
and found the same man inhaling from a can of computer duster. He wasn’t
arrested but police are considering submitting the report for “charges of
abusing a harmful intoxicant.” The man told police he abuses inhalants for
pain.

A 19 year old man has pleaded guilty to huffing behind the
wheel, resulting in the death of a 56 year old New Hampshire man.
The accident occurred June 30th of last year. The
driver hit the motorcyclist, causing him to roll onto the hood of the car and
then under a wheel. The man was pronounced dead at the hospital. The car's passenger later told police they had both huffed
computer dusting spray while driving.
At the driver’s arraignment last August the judge ordered
the defendant released on the condition he attend a residential treatment
program. In exchange for his guilty plea yesterday the prosecution agreed to “drop a charge of gross
negligent operation of a motor vehicle resulting in death and to argue, at
sentencing, for no more than a five-year prison sentence.” At the man’s sentencing
next month he can argue for a suspended sentence of 15 years and no prison
time.
