( Glendale, AZ ) A mother mourns the loss of her son from alcohol poisoning. The 16-year old died after consuming a large amount of alcohol in about two hours of time. The state has launched a campaign aimed at parents and adults to curb underage drinking. KJZZ's Paul Atkinson reports.

Addendum: The family whose home where the young man drank wants listeners to know that they were unaware he had drank so much alcohol until after he was taken to the hospital.
