Maine Fatal Fire Likely Caused By Inhalants
The Maine State Fire Marshal's Office revealed that the car fire that proved fatal to a 34-year-old man was likely caused when fumes from an aerosol can were sparked by a cigarette. The man suffered severe facial and manual burns, but managed to walk to neighbor's house to call for help. From there, he was taken to Maine General Medical Center and then to Maine Medical Center, where he died.
Investigators said that the man was "huffing" from an aerosol can, and found several empty aerosol cans inside the car. They also state that the man was a smoker, and the two factors combined to cause the fatal fire.

Minnesota Man Huffing and Driving Crashes into Another Vehicle
Via twincities.com
A 26-year-old Minnesota man was charged with third-degree operating a motor vehicle under the influence, reckless driving, careless driving and two counts of criminal vehicular operation after huffing and driving.
Officers responded to a call of a head on collision. The man driving was incoherent. Once coherent, he denied taking medications or drinking alcohol and he consented to a search of his car, "with the caveat that officers might find aerosol cans because he was 'huffing' the night before."
Officers found a partially empty aerosol can that had condensation and was cold to touch, meaning it had recently been used. In a statement to officers, the man said he took six to seven hits from the can while driving to work. The woman in the car he hit was taken to the hospital for back injuries.

Maine Man Pleads Guilty to Huffing and Driving
Via SunJournal.com
A 36-year-old Maine man pleaded guilty to driving under the influence of inhalants knowing that his license was revoked and having his 14-year-old nephew in the car with him until the teenager jumped out. The man pleaded guilty to a felony charge of operating after habitual offender revocation with a prior conviction and two misdemeanor counts of operating under the influence and endangering the welfare of a child. "The negotiated agreement dismissed two misdemeanor charges of driving to endanger and failing to notify of a motor vehicle accident."
Had the case gone to trial, witnesses would have testified that the man had temporarily blacked our and drove into a ditch and continued into the horse pasture. The Wilton Police Chief would have testified that the man was locked inside the vehicle and that she saw him huffing from the computer duster. The man's nephew was able to jump from the car as it entered the horse pasture.
The Judge deferred sentencing on the felony charge for a year. During that time the man will have to follow an agreement that outlines what he needs to do and he may not use alcohol, illegal drugs, or inhalants. If he abides by the terms the case will be dismissed. If he does not the minimum mandatory sentence is six months in jail and the maximum is five years and a $10,000 fine. The man was also sentence to 364 days in jail, all suspended, and one year probation on each of the misdemeanors. He must also pay a $500 fine and will lose his license for 150 days.
