Uways Hussain, 20, and Usmon Mahmood, 23, are jailed after a fatal crash in Manchester following reports that they inhaled nitrous oxide. According to the accounts from both outlets, the pair filmed themselves using the gas from a balloon and also drove in a dangerous manner before the collision. The crash occurred in March and involved a vehicle travelling at high speed in a road area with a 30 mph limit. One report describes speeds of up to 139 mph, while the other characterizes the crash as reaching speeds around 100 mph. Both sources say the incident included running red lights and weaving through traffic. The collision killed 50-year-old Sylvester Abayomi. The outlets report that the court proceedings focus on the combination of substance use and reckless driving leading to the fatal impact. Both men are convicted and receive custodial sentences, with details of the case centered on how their actions immediately preceded the crash and resulted in Abayomi’s death.
