1-Year-Old Dies Of Drug Overdose
A toddler is said to have died having overdosed on a combination of drugs, including oxycodone.
According to the Butler County Coroner's Office, Dorrico Dawaun Brown Jr died due to toxicity of the drugs found in his blood stream.
Police officers says the 1-year-old's father found the unresponsive child, lying on a bed on May 17. He immediately called 911 to the scene and the toddler was taken to Ft. Hamilton Hospital where he was subsequently pronounced dead.
"My son is just freezing cold and I don't think he's even breathing," said the man who called 911. "He was taking a nap and I came in here and he's just cold."
The dispatcher then gave instructions to the father on how to conduct CPR until the emergency crew arrived.
The Butler County Coroner issued a statement that the manner of death could not be ascertained.
