A University of Southern California student who was found dead by his roommates this weekend may have died from alcohol poisoning just as school officials cracked down on student partying, officials said Monday.
Thu Yain Kyaw, a sophomore from Singapore whose friends called him "Roy," had not been seen for a few days after a party at his home in the 1300 block of W. 29th Street, just blocks from USC's South Los Angeles campus, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
No one checked Kyaw’s room until Sunday, when his roommates found their friend dead. Full story
