It’s a ritual that happens all too often. A person turns 21 year old. So he or she is challenged to take 21 shots of an alcohol of choice, usually whiskey.
On April 7, a 21-year-old Independence man took the 21-shot challenge. The following day, he died from severe alcohol poisoning at an area hospital.
On April 9, hospital officials notified Sugar Creek police. An investigation revealed the man took 21 shots of alcohol, according to Sugar Creek Detective Virginia DeBoard.
The man was celebrating with friends and family at a local bar in Sugar Creek, police said.
He was taken to a local hospital by friends who took him from the bar to the hospital, according to police.
“It’s becoming more prominent, especially on college campuses,†DeBoard said.
