A father filed a lawsuit against Monster Energy Drink, claiming that it  is responsible for the death of his 19 year old son.

In an original report from TMZ, it was revealed that 19 year old Dustin Hood had consumed three and a half of the 24 ounce cans in a 24 hour time span. The lawsuit claimed that Hood had passed out onto a basketball court after he had finished drinking the forth can back in 2015.

He was rushed rushed to the hospital, where he later died.

According to College Candy, TMZ cited that Hood had “died of cardiac arrhythmia that was triggered by a caffeine overload, aka an “acute consumption” of Monster Energy Drink, according to the lawsuit. “The suit claims 3 1/2 cans of Monster has the equivalent caffeine content of 14, 12 ounce cans of Coke.”

It wasn’t specified what damages the father is seeking in this lawsuit.

Welcome everybody! My name is Shahael and I'm a 23 year old aspiring journalist. I am a college student by day and a writer by night. I use my blogs as an open book diary, but this site is intended to go beyond that. This website is like my online portfolio, where through my articles, I demonstrate my years of growth as a writer and diversity. What better way to do that than to post current articles as well as past ones that I've written within the past 3 years? What makes me credible you may ask? Well, I've been the features editor of my school's newspaper, have experience as a radio host, and have done some freelance work in trying to pursue my dreams. Why not join the ride with me and read as I type entertaining (and even educational) stories? I'm not your usual TABLOID website, because I am not one to spread gossip. I state facts and nothing but that.
