Ammon News - A 12-year-old boy has died — and a GoFundMe page set up by a loved one is claiming that his death stemmed from a dangerous social media challenge known as the “blackout challenge.”

The West Yorkshire Police announced that a boy died in Castleford, England, on Friday, June 27, according to local outlet Yorkshire Live.

"Police were called by ambulance colleagues to an address in Manor Grove, Castleford, at 6:06 p.m. [ on June 27] following reports of concern for the safety of a child," police told the outlet in a statement.

"Officers attended the location and the boy was taken to hospital where it was later confirmed that he had died. Enquiries are ongoing on behalf of the West Yorkshire Coroner to establish exactly what happened," the statement continued. "The incident is not being treated as suspicious."

In a GoFundMe campaign started soon after the incident, the fundraiser’s organizer Agnieszka Czerniejewska identified the boy simply as Sebastian, writing that “a dangerous internet challenge took his life.”

“Sebastian lost his life because of an online challenge,” she continued, specifically referencing the blackout challenge, before mentioning his family. “His parents gave him all the love and care in the world — but that one moment online changed everything.” People
