Abstract

Two young men and a 17-year-old girl gathered in order to take methamphetamine, the quantity of which remained unknown. After a short time one of the men died on the scene; the other man, who was alcoholized in addition to having taken methamphetamine, fell over a railing from a height of several metres and suffered severe injuries before dying. The girl, who left for home by taxi, collapsed and died in a hospital about 2 hours later. Methamphetamine was detected in the blood of all three people. The autopsy results and the toxicological findings are reported and discussed with reference to the literature data.
