Dad says Monster Energy drinks killed his son

Suit claims he consumed as much as caffeine as in 14 cans of Coke

(WGNTV) — A father claims too much energy drink killed his son.

He’s now suing the makers of Monster Energy drink, according to TMZ.

His son, Dustin Hood, was 19 when he drank three and a half, 24 ounce cans of Monster within 24 hours in 2015.

The lawsuit claims Hood played basketball after his last can and collapsed on the court.

Sometimes, you need to be held accountable for your own actions. Hey, a cup of joe or an energy drink before the game I would never personally do because I had trained without them, using just my own body's strength.

If you wish to add drugs in any form, even caffeine or nicotine to your body, you are responsible for the consequences

4 cans of hype is an overdose, and not part of the game.

Sorry you died.
