The police said there was no sign of foul play.

“He ingested a drug, and we don’t know what was in it,” she told SFGATE.

“One thing we do know, it was a drug," she said.

“We want to prevent this from happening to any other family,” Wojcicki said.

In a Facebook post, she wrote: "Tragedy hit my family yesterday My beloved grandson Marco Troper, age 19 passed away yesterday. Our family is devastated beyond comprehension."

"Marco's life was cut too short. And we are all devastated, thinking about all the opportunities and life experiences that he will miss and we will miss together. Marco, we all love you and miss you more than you will ever know," she said.
