Dude From Hawthorne Heights OD’d

Although friends of Hawthorne Height’s guitarist Casey Calvert originally claimed his death last month stemmed from use of an asthma inhaler, a toxicology report found different results.

Calvert, 25, was found on his band’s tour bus near the 9:30 club in Northwest Washington on Nov. 24 before he was to perform a concert. His death was an accident caused by the combined effects of opiates and the antidepressant citalopram and the anti-anxiety medication clonozepam, according to the medical examiner’s office.

Bummer, huh?
