Jangula’s death ruled accidental

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The state medical examiner has concluded that former North Dakota State University football player Tyler Jangula died from accidental drug poisoning.

The autopsy report on Jangula says he “ingested lethal quantity and combination of prescription-type drugs.” His death has officially been ruled accidental.

Jangula died Feb. 1 in his Williston home, after undergoing a surgery on his Achilles tendon just a few days earlier. He was 28.

Jangula was a standout athlete in multiple sports at Williston High School and a fullback for the Bison from 2005 to 2008.
