According to a witness at the scene, the deceased was seen drinking over a liter of herbal alcohol without eating any food until he vomited blood and collapsed.

The passersby were shocked and called the police for help, but it was too late to save the man. The police examined the body and then gave it to the family without providing any further information as to the cause of his death.

I would suggest that the "Herbs" had nothing to do with his death. One litre of spirit strength alcohol would be a challenge for even the hardest drinker, with or without a full stomach. Darwinism at work.
