Folkestone Magistrates’ Court in Kent, England held an inquest into the death of a 16-year-old boy last week, four months after he was found on the landing outside his room at a children’s home.
The inquest found that Thomas Townsend died on Aug. 29 at 6:30 p.m. after he inhaled too much gas from a spray-on deodorant, The Telegraph reported. Paramedics were unable to revive him. “He sprayed it all over himself and succumbed to the effects of the gas,” the coroner Rachel Redman said, according to Kent Online.
