The local coroner is reporting that a 22-year-old Oklahoma man committed suicide at a ski resort after witness said he ate "a large amount" of marijuana infused-candy.

Luke Gregory Goodman died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound on Tuesday in the mountain town of Keystone, about 50 miles west of Denver, Summit County Coroner Regan Wood said in a statement.

"According to witnesses the decedent had consumed a large amount of edible marijuana candies prior to his death," the statement said.

Goodman is not the only one.

Goodman's suicide is the latest of a handful of deaths which Colorado authorities have said may be linked to legalized pot since retail sales of the drug began in the state in January of last year.

Last year, a Wyoming student from the Congo "leaped to his death from a hotel balcony in Denver after eating six times the recommended amount of cannabis-infused cookies."
