Three people arrested after 16 year old girl dies in hospital.
Three people were charged with drug offences after, Shellie Callaghan, 16 years old, died from possibly taking ecstasy tablets. She dies in hospital on Saturday after falling ill at a party. A 42 year old, a 17 year old and a 16 year old were arrested when properties were searched following the deaths. The police are investigating the 16 year old's death and how she was able to get hold of the drugs. A large quantity of drugs were seized after the searches and the police urge people to not take the drugs similar to the ones seized.
This news story is important because it shows how easy it is for people to get hold of dangerous drugs and how dangerous the drugs can be to a persons life. Stories like this show that drugs can actually cause serious harm and death which allot of people underestimate. I think that laws related to drugs should be allot more harsh as it would deter people form using or selling them.
