A dad who died of cardiac arrest after a crash would not have survived the head injuries he suffered beforehand, an inquest heard.
Andrew Kelly, 37, of Harrogate Drive was a back seat passenger in a red Vauxhall Corsa, being driven by dad George, when it collided with a blue BMW right outside a pub in Anfield on May 27, 2020. The 37-year-old suffered fatal injuries and died a short time after arriving at hospital.
An inquest into Mr Kelly's death, held today at the Gerard Majella courthouse, heard that the 37-year-old had been "unrestrained" in the back seat and when emergency services arrived, he was found unconscious but breathing. A short time later, Mr Kelly suffered a cardiac arrest and later died at Aintree Hospital.
