Occupy Protester Dies in Pioneer Park

 
I read this morning that one of the Occupy Protesters, who was living in Salt Lake City's Pioneer Park has died of unknown causes.  Here is the photo that appeared on Drudge Report:

On the floor of his tent, right next to his sleeping bag is a propane stove, much like the ones used by Boy Scouts and other campers.  It is very possible that this poor man, in an effort to stay warm during the cold night, used his stove as a heater inside his tent and asphyxiated himself while he slept.

I can't recall how many times, as a Scoutmaster, the boys and I discussed the dangers of bringing stoves into a tent.  And I can't recall how many times I read about men, women, and entire families dying during their sleep because the used a stove as a heater inside their tent.

UPDATE:  I read today that the cause of this man's death was a combination of carbon monoxide poisoning and drugs.
