Petrolia Fire, the first on scene, carried Bush from his vehicle and did CPR on him. At that time, they reported finding two containers of unknown chemicals in the vehicle. The report of chemicals required the dispatch of Humboldt Bay Hazmat Team. When the Hazmat team arrived on the scene, they identified the chemicals. These chemicals can cause carbon monoxide to form.
No suicide note was found in the vehicle. More information will be released on Monday.

You know, that is one of the reasons I wondered if the man found dead in the river near Whitethorn while he was camping at Wialaiki ( comes up misspelled ) was a suicide. Waited a long time and never read cause of death for him.
In Japan there is a forest that is famous for the number of people that go there to say goodbye to the world.
The river is not that far if you use Wailaki campground as the hub of your explorations for several days. Don ‘t know any details. Some suicidal folks search for just the right spot. Very sad.
the man found in whitethorn who was camping at wailaki was my good friend Scott. no foul play, he had some medical issues. thank you for thinking of him. we miss him a lot.
Thank you for updating us. I’m sorry for the loss of your friend.
Kym,
thanks for all the updates on this death. How sad.
