HAMILTON, Mont. (AP) - Officials have released the name of a 16-year-old Hamilton boy who died over the weekend of an apparent prescription drug overdose.
Caden Fowler, a junior at Hamilton High School, was found dead in his home Sunday morning. A 15-year-old boy who had also apparently overdosed was hospitalized.
Brandi Fowler told the Ravalli Republic her son was a good kid who did something stupid. She says she hopes others who may be seeking a high through the illegal use of prescription drugs will learn from her son’s death.
