Man Found Dead at Ultra Music Festival
. Now even more tragically, it's been revealed that 21-year-old attendee Adonis Escoto was found dead in a parked car near the festival's Bayfront Park location. According to the Miami New Times, Escoto told friends he was feeling dizzy during the festival's second night (March 29). Thinking he'd had too much to drink, his friends took him to the car to sleep it off and sober up. When they returned to the vehicle after the festival ended for the evening, they discovered Escoto had died. "We have no idea what happened," said his aunt, Rosa Escoto. "He didn't take drugs. We think maybe someone put something in his drink without him knowing." "We are still looking into that," Miami Police Chief Manuel Orosa said at a press conference (via NBC Miami) in regards to the cause of death. "The autopsy is yet to be completed and the toxicology will take probably a few months." The Miami New Times points out that Escoto being slipped something toxic without his knowledge is not inconceivable, citing a 2013 incident when an Ultra attendee fell into a coma and nearly died after being given water laced with antifreeze. Another 2013 Ultra attendee from New Jersey did lose his life from multiple organ failure, allegedly due to illicit drug use. more on this story Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
