Car crash blamed on driver "huffing"

A car crashing into the woods along I-496 is being blamed on the driver inhaling the contents of canned "air duster".

The Eaton County Sheriff's Office tells us the driver was huffing when he crossed the median, just missing two MDOT trucks, and crashed into the woods.

The compressed air and propellant in duster cans causes the heart to beat erratically and cuts off the supply of oxygen to the brain.

Abusing it can be addictive.
