Police said that they also investigated the party for underage drinking and drug use.
“I imagine that charges will be arising from the party. I don’t know that charges will be coming out in connection with his death, since it was ruled accidental," said Marlboro Police Chief Ron Devies. “It is now in the prosecutor’s hands.”
