The death of a 26-year-old Durango man discovered in his home in April has been ruled an accident, according to an autopsy report released Monday.
Taylor Folmar died after ingesting a large amount of isopropanol, described as rubbing alcohol in a report completed by forensic pathologist Robert Kurtzman.
Folmar was found by his roommate and sister about 7 p.m. April 17. He was last seen alive around 4 a.m. that day after entering his roommate’s room, defecating on the floor, then stumbling into his own room, the report said.
The roommate checked on him about 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. and thought Folmar was breathing.
Folmar was an OxyContin and Vicodin abuser and an alcoholic, the report said.
The roommate reported Folmar acting “strange” in the months before his death and was ill for several weeks, but there was no report Folmar was suicidal, the report said.
