ELLENSBURG, Ore. (AP) - Police say a 19-year-old man died from injuries sustained in a four-story fall in Ellensburg.
The Daily Record reports around 9:42 p.m. Tuesday, Ellensburg police officers were called to an apartment on reports that a person was acting erratically and appeared to have overdosed on LSD.
Officers saw the man fall from the apartment window and began life-saving measures. Kittitas Valley Fire and Rescue then arrived, took over first-aid efforts and transported the man to an airport for transfer to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.
The young man died before the helicopter arrived, police said. His name has not been released.
A second 19-year-old male had also consumed drugs, according to the Ellensburg Police Captain Dan Hansberry. He was not exhibiting the same erratic behavior and was taken to Kittitas Valley Healthcare and released within a couple hours.
No charges are currently being filed. Police are investigating where the drugs originated from, and the events leading up to the incident.
