Alaska State Troopers are attributing the death of an 11-year-old boy in the village of Togiak to inhalant abuse.

They apparently sniffed air freshener with another child and died on Sunday afternoon. Previously, he had told his grandparents he had been forced to sniff gasoline by some older boys.
