In a tragic incident, seven-year-old Archie York lost his life due to an explosion caused by butane gas during illegal cannabis shatter production. The blast destroyed a block of flats in Newcastle and led to the sentencing of Reece Galbraith to 14 years for manslaughter. His mother, Katherine Errington, is calling for an end to such dangerous practices and urging cannabis users to consider the risks involved in shatter production. Investigations revealed that over 100 butane canisters were found in the flat where the illegal operation took place, highlighting the extreme safety hazards involved.
The process of making shatter is inherently dangerous because butane is highly flammable. It is a process that has to be done with the utmost care to avoid an explosion.
Archie's mother Katherine Errington is pleading to anyone involved in the horrible process of making cannabis shatter to stop immediately.
Police investigating the explosion discovered that the flat operated by Galbraith and Laws was used as a drugs lab to produce cannabis concentrates in a highly dangerous process.
The explosion wrecked a block of 12 flats in the Benwell area of Newcastle, leading to the tragic death of seven-year-old Archie York.
