A retired police officer passed away after his head got trapped in a hospital bed!
Max Dingle from Newtown, aged 83, died whilst in the care of the Royal Shrewsbury hospital on the 3rd of May 2020, due to getting his head and neck getting stuck between the rails and the mattress.
The post-mortem test they originally did gave his cause of death as heart disease, but Mr dingle’s son requested it to be re-done by a second examination revealed that his cause of death was actually entrapment and asphyxiation.
