13 year old Seth Walsh is in critical condition, in an ICU unit since Sunday, in an induced coma after he apparently tried to take his own life, the Tehachapi News reports. Walsh is a student at Jacobsen Middle School and was reportedly bullied repeatedly because he identifies as gay. Tehachapi, California Police Chief Jeff Kermode said “On Sunday, September 19th, at 6:24 p.m., Tehachapi officers were dispatched to a possible suicide. The location was a home on White Oak Drive. When they arrived they found a 13 year old male lying on his back unconscious and not breathing. Police officers began CPR until paramedics arrived. The boy was flown to Kern Medical Center by air ambulance. It appeared the 13 year old had hung himself from a tree branch in the back yard. The police department is investigating the circumstances that may have led him to attempt suicide.” Friday, the family issued a statement to the
Tehachapi News asking for privacy,
the message in part reading “Seth is a 13 year old kind-hearted boy whom is fighting for his life in a coma in ICU in critical condition. The circumstances which led to Seth’s current condition are neither his family’s nor his friend’s focus at this time. Seth’s family is simply requesting respect for their privacy, positive support and prayers for Seth!” The message also reads “A negative action ... by adults and children ... will not solve or help anyone!”
