25 Year Old Found Huffing in NJ Wal-Mart Restroom
Via the DailyJournal.com in New Jersey:
A 25 year old woman was charged with “possession of a controlled dangerous substance” after a Wal-Mart employee found her huffing from a can of dust remover in the store restroom.
When the woman hadn’t come out of the restroom after 30 minutes, her friend asked store personnel to check on her. Upon entering the employee “heard an aerosol can hit the floor” and there was no response when he knocked on the stall door. He then saw her pick up the can and “dispense the can near her face.” She soon emerged from the stall and showed the employee the receipt confirming she had purchased the product. She posted bail and was released.

Restroom 'Huffer' Apprehended
From THonline.com in Dubuque, Iowa
Police arrested a 30-year-old woman on Sunday afternoon inside a convenience store on charges of ‘sniffing chemicals.’ Store employees reportedly notified police that there “was a woman ‘huffing’ from a can” in the restroom. When officers arrived to the store and entered the restroom they discovered the suspect standing over the sink; struggling to hold herself up. Officers then recovered an empty 10-ounce can of computer duster from the woman’s coat pocket.

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.’
