Caught Huffing While Awaiting Sentencing for Inhalant Abuse
Via the Pittsburgh Tribune Review:
A 29 year-old man was arrested earlier this month after a probation officer caught him huffing computer duster spray behind a dumpster at the day reporting center. The officer noticed he appeared under the influence and had “an aerosol canister in his left jacket pocket.”
The man has been ordered to report to the center while awaiting sentencing on an inhalant related hit and run crash in October, his “third offense of being under the influence of a solvent.”

Man Found Dead in Club - Inhalants Suspected
From KDKA in Pittsburgh:
Two weeks ago, a 31 year-old male was found dead in one of the rented rooms inside a Pittsburgh club “with a number of cans of inhalants nearby.”
The article notes that police confiscated a product that is “designed to be used to clean VCRs and radio parts, but people use it as a sex enhancer, a practice that's illegal and potentially deadly.”
Police believe he purchased the product at the club. Therefore, potential criminal charges are being discussed as “state law does not allow the sale and use of certain solvents and noxious substances for the purpose of intoxication, inebriation, excitement or the dulling of the brain or nervous system.”
