0:46Now PlayingAuthorities in Ireland are launching an inquiry into the tragic death of a teenage girl who is believed to have fallen ill when she inhaled aerosol as part of a TikTok challenge.
Sarah Mescall, 14, of Kilnamona, died on Monday afternoon, three days after she was admitted to Crumlin Children’s Hospital in Dublin, the Irish Independent reported.
The teen is thought to have collapsed while attempting the “chroming” TikTok challenge, which involves spraying aerosol onto a piece of clothing and wrapping it around your face, Extra.ie said.
She reportedly woke up briefly and told her mother what happened before losing consciousness again and being placed in an induced coma, the outlet explained.
“[Irish police] have notified the Coroner of the death of a girl (14) which occurred at Crumlin Children’s Hospital on the morning of Monday 25th September 2023,” the country’s authorities told Irish Independent Tuesday.
“[Irish police] focus is the preparation of an investigation file for the coroner.”
