Not Your Average Trip to the Supermarket

From KETV News in Omaha, Nebraska

A 15 year old girl is lucky to be alive after she passed out in a grocery store restroom in Lincoln, Nebraska earlier this week. Store employees were alerted of the teen’s whereabouts from an accompanying friend who had made several unsuccessful attempts to revive the victim. As to the cause of the medical emergency, police have determined and confirmed that the victim was ‘huffing’ a computer dusting product in the store’s restroom facility prior to the accident- even trying to teach her friend how to get high.

Apparently, the teens had purchased a canister of duster from a nearby Wal-Mart prior to entering the grocery store. Store employees responded swiftly to the news of an unconscious teen on the premise, immediately contacting emergency professionals and the victim’s guardian. After a brief stint in the hospital the victim was released and “referred to the county attorney’s office” to undergo a drug assessment evaluation and receive further treatment.

ACE would like to note of KETV’s inaccurate reference to computer duster as ‘compressed air.’
