Man dies at RockNess
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 11 June 2012
A nineteen year old man died at the RockNess festival in Scotland this weekend. The festival-goer collapsed on Saturday night and it’s thought he may have taken drugs shortly beforehand, with some media speculating that he may have consumed a so called ‘legal high’ substance.
A police spokesman was less committal though, telling reporters: “Early indications are that the man may have consumed drugs and this is one of the lines of inquiry at this stage. A post mortem will be carried out to determine the cause of death”.
It was the second tragic incident linked to the Highlands festival, after an accident involving a bus taking people to the event on Friday. Two men travelling in a van that collided with the coach died.
