Teen in Tulsa Dies From a Laughing Gas Overdose

Via fox23.com Tulsa, OK

A 19-year-old male custodian is suspected to have over dosed on laughing gas after workers found him dead in a room at St. Francis Medical Building.

In the last year there have been a handful of deaths in Tulsa connected to huffing.

At least two people have died from huffing refrigerant from air conditioning units.

Just a day before the death of the 19-year-old male, police encountered another huffing incident with a group of burglars in a pursuit who were suspected of huffing gold spray paint.

Three obvious signs to that someone you know may be addicted to inhalants are:

  • Frostbite on fingers (refrigerant users)


  • Coloring around the mouth (spray paint users)


  • Empty bags with paint residue and or bottles and cans littered in a room/car
