Gored by the Red Bull

A boy of 11 hanged himself after energy drinks changed his behaviour, his father said last night.

Lee Johns said Tyler was a happy-go-lucky child until he started downing the drinks to make himself feel grown up.

His father said shops should be banned from selling the products to children.
