Student dies after 'killer breakfast'

[Redeemed]

A FINAL-year student at the University of Johannesburg died of suspected food poisoning hours after writing on his Facebook page that he was having a "killer breakfast".

The media studies and journalism student had earlier posted on his Facebook page that he was having a "killer breakfast" at Clearwater Mall, Roodepoort. The message read: "Having a killer breakfast - thanx Vee".

You can die from food poisoning?

Name of restaurant ?

I think he was perhaps murdered ?

I think he was perhaps murdered ?

Probably.

The parents rushed to the university and took him to hospital. Sefudi's tongue had turned blue when they arrived at the hospital, said his mom. He was aggressive, having seizures and and refused to be examined. He died later.

I laughed so hard. Am I going to hell?

I think he was perhaps murdered ?

Not possible.
South Africa has ethical murderers who use a gun, knife/panga or blunt object.
None of this nonsense like poison where forward planning is required.

I've never heard of that course either. But reading some of the comments to the article I don't believe quality reporting is paramount at the Sowetan.

Shame though, poor oke his mate wouldn't even buy him a coke. Seems people are 'blaming she'?https://www.facebook.com/sechaba.sefudi/posts/483938281630788

Shame man, poor guy.

Food poisoning can be bad enough even when you only think you're going to die.

 

[marine1]

Poor guy, poor family I still think he was murdered, time to find the person he was with, suspect number 1

 

[Azbubu]

She? The plot thickens. Unless by breakfast he didn't mean food?

 

[Redeemed]

I tend to agree with you Marine, doctors suspected the same. Horrific and sad.

 

[Hemi300c]

Must have been a terrible death I hope they find the cause and culprit if there is one?

 

[WaxLyrical]

I take it the said takeout won't be using the slogan:
Food to die for.
