Gardaí are awaiting the results of toxicology tests after a teenage boy died following a house party in Meath on Sunday night.

The 17-year-old attended a party in Navan and was later discovered unconscious at a house early on Monday morning.

The boy was brought by ambulance to Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda in County Louth where he later died.

A post-mortem examination was carried out on his body yesterday and a file is being prepared under the Coroner’s Act.

Gardaí say they are not treating his death as suspicious.

The teenager was due to start his Leaving Certificate Exams today.
