An Apex High School student died after taking LSD, and police have charged another teen with selling him the drug.
Timothy Justin Castaneda, 17, was unconscious when police and EMS were called about 1:45 a.m. Oct. 6 to a wooded area behind Beaver Creek Cinemas in the Beaver Creek Shopping Center. Castaneda was taken to Wake Medical Center and died seven days later.
Police charged fellow student Ryan Laches, 17, with two counts of selling LSD to Castaneda.
Castaneda was with three other teenage boys when police arrived. All three independently said Laches had supplied the LSD, according to a search warrant made public Tuesday. The other teens told police that Castaneda had taken two “hits” of LSD about 11 p.m. and soon began “freaking out,” according to the warrant.
The teens said Castaneda’s behavior continued until he collapsed shortly before they called 911 nearly three hours later, according to the warrant.
Bob Whitaker of Cary said his 15-year-old son was at the same party as Castaneda that night. The two were friends. The next morning, police arrived at Whitaker’s house to ask him whether his son was alive and safe. “I was totally shocked,” Whitaker said.
