Whether the person who died was a woman or a man may still be open to debate, but a coroner's jury ruled yesterday the death was an accident.

The jury found that Abdirhman Ali Abdi, who was known on the streets of Hamilton by the female identity Chevranna, died after choking on vomit brought on by cocaine poisoning.
