A teenager who was suffering seizures was pronounced dead after waiting almost 14 hours for an ambulance, an inquest has heard.

Two desperate 999 calls were made to help 19-year-old Bradley Holder. He had been acting erratically while his breathing had been described as 'on and off' during the episode.

At one point, a friend warned the 999 call handler 'there will be a death if an ambulance isn't sent', Stoke-on-Trent Live reports.

A coroner has now ruled that the ambulance service responsible acted in 'gross failure neglect' over the way it handled the situation.

Bruce Springsteen cancels European shows over ‘vocal issues’ — months after he battled peptic ulcer disease
announced Saturday, just before the show was slated to start.“We thank you for your understanding and will keep you informed of the new date very soon. Show tickets will be valid for the new date and, for those who want, they will be eligible for reimbursement at point of purchase.”On Sunday, however, “further examination and consulting has led doctors to determine that Bruce should not perform for the next ten days,” according to a statement Springsteen, 74, shared on social media.Also postponed were Tuesday’s show at the Airport Letnany in Prague and two shows at the San Siro Stadium in Milan on June 1 and June 3.“Bruce is recuperating comfortably, and he and the E Street Band look forward to resuming their hugely successful European stadium tour on June 12 in Madrid at the magnificent Civitas Metropolitan,” the statement added.Springsteen’s vocal issues come just two months after the “Glory Days” singer resumed the US leg of the tour after canceling all dates in September, when he revealed he was diagnosed with peptic ulcer disease.The rocker — who is known for performing marathon shows that run up to three hours — worried that the disease would affect his voice.“When I had the stomach problem, one of the big problems was I couldn’t sing,” Springsteen said in March on SiriusXM’s “E Street Radio With Jim Rotolo.”“Before people told me, ‘Oh no, it’s gonna go away, and you’re gonna be OK.’ [But] you’re thinking like, ‘Hey, am I gonna sing again?’” the “Born to Run” singer admitted.
