Popular College Student Dies From ‘Huffing’ Nitrous Oxide

CLAREMONT, Calif. (KTLA) — A family came to Los Angeles to celebrate the graduation of a son, instead they ended up grieving the death of another. Claremont Police responded to a call at call for help at Claremont McKenna college. They found 19-year-old student Ali Mirza unconscious inside a dorm room. Officers tell KTLA 5 News there were empty canisters of nitrous oxide lying around. The gas, better known as “laughing gas,” can cause uncontrollable laughter, dizziness, confusion, fainting, or in Ali Mirza’s case, possibly death, according to police. Police think Mirza was breathing it in with a friend to get high. Many who use N2O to get high don’t fully understand the dangers.
