10-year-old dies, found hanged at school

A 10-year-old Illinois boy has died after he was found hanging from a hook in his elementary school bathroom.

Officials at Oakton Elementary School in Evanston called 911 after finding fifth grader Aquan Lewis unresponsive at about 3 p.m. Tuesday.

School janitor Elliott Lieteau says the boy had been pulled off a hook and was lying on the floor when he entered the restroom.
He says he performed CPR on the boy.

Anquan was pronounced dead early Wednesday at Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago.

The Cook County medical examiner's office says Lewis was apparently found hanged.
Authorities have released few details about the incident.
But school district spokeswoman Patricia Markham called it an accident.

*****
She may call it an accident but the coroner says it was suicide.

What in the seven hells makes a 10-year-old commit suicide?!?!?!
There better be some serious questions being asked and answered in Illinois!
