Tragic Death at Burning Man Festival: Drug Intoxication Revealed as Cause

The suspected cause of death of a 32-year-old man who passed away at the Burning Man festival in Nevada's Black Rock Desert has been revealed to be drug intoxication by the Washoe County Medical Examiner's Office. Attendees could finally begin exiting the festival on Monday after extreme rainfall subsided and the route was reopened to vehicles. Officials have debunked conspiracy theories about an Ebola outbreak at the festival. Clean-up efforts are ongoing following the heavy flooding, with the grounds left very muddy and damaged. The conditions led to abandoned vehicles and the property being left behind as revelers struggled to depart.
