Miller Gardner: Toxicology Report Determines Cause Of Death For Ex-Yankee's Son
Carbon monoxide poisoning killed the 14-year-old son of former New York Yankees star Brett Gardner, a Costa Rican official announced on Wednesday.

'It's important to note that adjacent to this room is a dedicated machine room, where it's believed there may be some type of contamination toward these rooms,' Zúñiga said, per AP.

The official added Wednesday that additional tests were conducted to detect substances such as fentanyl and they came back negative, according to The tragic circumstance and twists in the case grabbed the nation's attention for weeks. After the entire family felt unwell the previous night following dinner at a local restaurant, authorities initially believed the teen died of 'asphyxiation due to intoxication related to food poisoning.
