As the autopsy results remain pending, investigators are also weighing the possibility that Sicknick could have died from exposure to a chemical irritant, such as bear mace or pepper spray. It also remains unclear whether Sicknick had any pre-existing conditions.

Unfortunately autopsy results haven't been released. All I heard was the video shows he wasn't close to the chemicals so they might say pre existing condition.

But thanks for adding to the convo, appreciated.

Has anyone ever died from pepper spray?

Fucked if I know.

There's always a first I guess? Just interesting it happened with an actual "mostly peaceful" protest involving Trump supporters though.

Conveniently happening after fake news claimed he was bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher. Odd, at the very least

Yep. at the very least.

I think he told his family, on the phone later that night, that he was basically fine, but had been exposed to mace, or tear gas. I'm pretty sure he never told them that he had been beaten with a fire extinguisher.
