Darius Campbell Danesh 'looked happy and healthy' on night out just days before death

Pop star Darius Campbell Danesh looked happy and healthy only days before his death during a night out in the US with pal Gerard Butler. In the last pictures of the Scots singer in public, he is seen going on rides and speaking to fans at a fair in Minnesota.

Ten days after his trip to the Olmstead Country Fair in Rochester, Darius, 41, was found dead in a hotel apartment. Netti Phang, who bumped into him and Hollywood star Butler at the fair, said: “I still can’t believe I was one of the last people to talk to him or see him alive.

“It’s hard to understand how something like this happened. Darius could not have been a nicer human being. Even though they were in a hurry and it was late at night, Darius stayed and took pictures and was patient while everyone swarmed Gerard.

“I was very sad when I learned he had passed such a short while after meeting him.”

Darius, from Bearsden, near Glasgow, was found unresponsive in an apartment opposite the medical facility The Mayo Clinic in Minneapolis, which is just a short drive from the fair.

He died from “inhalation of chloroethane”, according to the Southern Minnesota Regional Medical Examiner’s Office and his death was ruled an accident by the medical examiner.

Chloroethane is a pain relief spray but also has a history of being inhaled as a recreational drug.
