A Pennsylvania mayor has died at age 23, hours after resigning his post. The deputy coroner in Schuylkill County pronounced Brandon Wentz dead Thursday morning. Officials havent said how he died.
Barnes was appointed mayor of Mount Carbon in February 2016. He followed his mother and grandmother into public service. His grandmother was the first woman to be mayor of Mount Carbon, and his mother served on the council.
Janel Marie tells The Associated Press her son resigned Wednesday night because he and the family had moved out of the small Schuylkill County borough.

I’ve heard about people dying soon after retiring, but sheesh!
(sniff, sniff) yep sounds mighty fishy to me...
No reports on where the young man was found dead, and local media reporting cause of death, per autopsy, was pulmonary congestion. Toxicology is not back yet.
What could he possibly have done to p*ss off the Clintons in just 23 years?
It was Schuylkill, not Fishkill ..............B^)
.
Someone helped him sniff a CO2 fire extinguisher too long.

Probably not. Dr. David G. Moylan III, the coroner, said the virtual autopsy conducted Thursday showed pulmonary congestion, or fluid in the lungs. Many things can cause it, he said.
Some of the possibles:
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a potentially serious condition caused by severe infections, trauma, lung injury, inhalation of toxins, lung infections, cocaine smoking, or radiation to the lungs. Kidney failure, high altitude pulmonary edema, brain trauma, an overdose of heroin or methadone, aspirin overdose, and these are just the non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema causes.
Probably nothing here.

He must have known something about his own health...
Because the war on drugs is so effective.
How’s the war on murder doing? Been illegal for all these centuries and we still can’t stop it. Time to legalize murder I guess.
Hillary?
Hillary?
Progressives have already legalized murder for unborn babies. Drip, drip, drip.
It would be understandable if this Alaska mayor died at 23,

Interesting stats but I did notice that they were lacking ... there was no column for “Clinton Associated”
Arkancide?
Inhalation of toxins....mixing bathroom cleaners killed my father-in-law. Horrible experience. Fluid on lungs from chemical enduced pneumonia was cause of death.
I put bleach into a solution of nitrogen salts when I was a fairly new graduate student. I wasn't thinking about the fact that nitrogen salts are ammonia salts... I haven't forgotten that fact since.
So sorry about your father-in-law, that was terribly unfortunate.
