An autopsy on the body's engineer found dead Tuesday morning at Gap
revealed a death by suffocation as a result of significant alcohol
consumption, said Thursday the floor of Gap. "The autopsy revealed a
Mendelson's syndrome", that is to say, choking by regurgitation of
gastric fluid in the airways, said the prosecutor of the Republic of
Gap, Rémy Avon.
"The evidence gathered during the investigation testified that the
deceased had been drinking with colleagues in a festive, especially
because of his birthday," he said. A BAC of 2.3 grams per liter of
blood has been found in the victim, 59, found half submerged in the
river Luye. The thesis of drowning, however, could be "excluded". The
body of Patrick Guay, uncle of the rider Jerome Pineau, was
repatriated in the department of Sarthe where it came from
I may be wrong, but I think that translates to a BAC reading of 0.23,
as usually expressed in North America. That's about triple the common
legal limit.

If that garbled translation is right, though, he fatally aspirated his
own vomit, then fell in the river?! This is an unusual sequence of
events.
