MADRID, 19 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) –
A 14-year-old boy has died from poisoning in Getafe after ingesting a can of ‘Red Bull’ that would contain about two grams of what is known as ‘pink cocaine’ or ‘tusi’, a mixture of substances such as ketamine or ecstasy. Sources from the victim’s environment, the police and the Community of Madrid Emergencies have informed Europa Press.
The parents of the deceased have already filed a complaint with the National Police, which is investigating what happened as a crime of homicide. The young man was buried yesterday. The matter will be put in the hands of the Juvenile Prosecutor, who will take statements from the people involved in the case once they are identified and will decide on the investigations to be carried out.
The events occurred around eleven at night last Friday around the Los Espardales metro station in Getafe when the boy and two friends met up with other young people they had met on the Instagram social network.
Apparently, these kids would have put two grams of ‘tusi’ in a can without the minor and his friends noticing. After that, the strangers fled through the subway and posted a video on social networks recounting his “feat” and mocking the minor, according to the sources consulted. The video has already been deleted.
Within minutes, the boy fell to his death and suffered fatal poisoning from ingesting the aforementioned lethal drug. Paramedics and National Police officers went to the scene and notified the parents of what had happened.
Summa 112 sources have confirmed to Europa Press that health workers treated a 14-year-old boy who suffered a cardiorespiratory arrest, without being able to resuscitate him. The troops confirmed the death.
