Died on Oct. 21, 2017
He died from Choking in Atlanta.
Kejuan Mason was pronounced dead at Atlanta Medical Center after a paramedic performed CPR on him at his residence Saturday afternoon.The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office said blunt force trauma had caused the child's death. His guardian, Glenndra Landrina, said she gave the kids — there were four other children in the house at the time — cupcakes to eat and said (Mason) “appeared to be choking on a cupcake.” Landrina said she and a man named Hurbert Morris attempted CPR and said responders took too long to arrive, according to the report. Landrina “changed her story” afterward and said Mason “was choking on the cupcake they made,” police said. They removed the cupcake and said he was “fine breathing and talking later.” They said Mason went to sleep later, but was unresponsive when they checked on him, according to the report. Landrina and her sister, Lashirley Morris, have been arrested.
