Investigation into Miller Gardner's Death Centers on Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Miller Gardner, the 14-year-old son of former New York Yankees player Brett Gardner, is believed to have died from carbon monoxide poisoning during a family vacation in Costa Rica. Initially suspected to have died from food poisoning, authorities later detected high levels of carbon monoxide in his hotel room, with reports indicating levels as high as 600 parts per million, well above the danger threshold. The Costa Rican Judicial Investigative Agency stated that the contamination likely originated from a mechanical room adjacent to the family's accommodations. The hotel, Arenas Del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Resort, denied earlier claims of carbon monoxide presence in the guest room, insisting that the levels were non-existent there. The investigation into Miller's death is ongoing, with toxicology reports pending, as the family had also reported gastrointestinal illness prior to his death. The New York Yankees expressed their grief and support for the Gardner family during this tragic time.
