There are two articles in the Local Echo Newspaper, the first states...

An 18-year-old girl died after taking an Ecstasy-type tablet.

The teenager was rushed to the Royal Liverpool hospital on Sunday after taking a lime-green coloured “Rock Star” tablet emblazoned with a five-pointed star motif.

The second article names her, and also states she was 19. A slight discrepency in clarity, but they definitely refer to the same person/incident.

The lethal drug is sold as a type of ecstasy but is reported to contain a cocktail of mystery substances.

Police today warned people not to take the tablet, which was described as being marked with a five-pointed-star motif.

It goes on to describe the tablet,

The tablet is lime green with a five-point star on one side and a line through the centre of the tablet on the other side

Story 1 Additional/Alternative source: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-24106089


The article (source a) also speculates to a a link with previous incidents involving similar tablets with the same motif from earlier this year

A drug dubbed “Rock Star” sparked a series of police warnings in Lanarkshire, Scotland, in March, after seven people were hospitalised and one died after allegedly taking the tablets which were being sold as “Ecstasy”.

Taking a drug called "Rockstar" has led to seven people in the Glasgow area being hospitalised over the weekend - and to a public warning from police.

Damn, after only one pill?

I bet it was 5-it / PMA or some crap like that.

^ It's you.

I'm pretty sure those aren't even the same pills in the picture though, the ones they show here are a usually reliable press.

Dont know i just noticed alot of the ''E deaths'' were linked to green pills. In ireland,Uk and states if im not mistaken. People should test their pills instead of believeing whatever shit there told and things like this wouldnt happen...

Just to clarify, the image of the pills are from the second story, but even so, it's highly improbable they would obtain photo's of the potentially fatal pills.

Neither of the articles specify whether any other substances were combined, nor what the actual substances were, no indication of dose, nor whether proper care or diligence was taken during the roll (for example, remaining hydrated, or being overhydrated).

Take it with a pinch of salt, I just thought it would be a fair warning to anyone who might come across these. It's not difficult to find people openly soliciting drugs in Liverpool on Friday and Saturday nights.
