Comedian Fuquan Johnson has been very popular on social media, as he does stand-up comedy shows and skits online. Over the weekend though, he, unfortunately, died of an overdose, according to TMZ.
Two others were reported to have suffered from an OD, in addition to a fourth person being hospitalized. Johnson and these individuals are said to have been at someone’s house in Venice, CA. Fellow comedian Kate Quigley was also in attendance.
Johnson and the two people who suffered the OD were pronounced dead on the scene. Quigley was who was sent to the hospital in critical condition. As for what drugs were consumed, police are suspecting cocaine laced with fentanyl. The L.A. Coroner’s Office will be conducting autopsies.
LAPD has since added that it’s unclear who provided these drugs or who bought them. This makes it difficult to charge suspects. The other two people who overdose have since been IDed as Enrico Colangeli (Rico Angeli) and Natalie Williamson.
Comedian Brian Redban texted Quigley to get the status of her condition. She isn’t feeling the best but will survive.
