A 14-year-old boy died after drinking an energizer with “tusi”: they believe it was a deadly prank

In Spain, a 14-year-old boy died after ingesting an energy drink containing 2 grams of tusi, the drug also known as “pink cocaine”. Ryan’s case moves the country, as it is suspected that his death may have been caused by two other young people who wanted to prank him.

According to El País, Ryan left his home in Moncloa, Madrid on Friday evening to meet up with friends. He didn’t have more than 30 euros with him. He never came home: He decomposed in a subway station and died a few minutes later.

The police called his mother from Ryan’s phone to immediately go to the subway station. They told her that her son had fallen and was feeling dizzy.

However, a few minutes later – and before the woman arrived – Ryan went into cardiopulmonary arrest and died. It all happened around 11pm at the station. Shoulder padsin Getafe.

The police and two of Ryan’s friends were present at the scene. Shortly afterwards, the Madrid Emergency Medical Service (Summa 112) arrived to try to save the boy, although without success.

Curiously, before his death, the boy’s family saw a video online in which two other teenagers laugh at having put two grams of tusi in the can of a third party’s drink. This made everyone involved think that Ryan had died from drunkenness.

The young man was honored in a park near the station, where his friends built an altar with red and white candles.

The police investigate the reason for Ryan’s death

And the boy’s family was right: Ryan died of drunkenness. Over the weekend, toxicology autopsy results came back positive. After finding out, his family connected the dots and confirmed their suspicions about the video (which is no longer available).

The teenagers who had accompanied the boy to the subway station explained that a few minutes earlier Ryan and they had been with two other acquaintances who had run away when the first had fainted.

They were the ones who told the police that Ryan had met with those two boys after they agreed on Instagram and that during their meeting the teenager had drank an energy drink.

In fact, there were only 27 euros in Ryan’s pockets, which suggests that the boy could have spent those three euros on the energizer.

State Police confirmed they are investigating whether the child drank the energy drink knowing it contained tusi. The case is not being investigated as a homicide..
