NEW DETAILS EMERGE IN DEATH OF TEXAS A&M STUDENT

  

New details have emerged in the suspected drug overdose of a 19-year-old Texas A&M student.

Authorities are now saying that fraternity members in the Sigma Nu house waited 31 minutes to call 911 after discovering that Anton Gridnev overdosed.

Police say that someone from the house called College Station Medical Center and asked what to do if someone overdosed. Fifteen minutes later, another call was made to the medical center. The caller requested help, but did not want police involved because of the use of drugs. Another sixteen minutes passed before anyone called 911.

When authorities arrived, Gridnev was unconscious and unresponsive. Witnesses at the house said that he was celebrating his birthday and he may have ingested ecstasy, hydrocodone, Xanax, and possibly heroin.

Authorities say they found drugs out in the open in eleven rooms. According to investigators, they seized scales and documents of drug sales, as well as cash.

Four men were arrested after Gridnev was found: Samuel Patterson, 21, Michael Frymire, 20, Christian Sandford, 18, and Ty Robertson, 21.
