AN inquest has been opened into the death of a 22-year-old who "collapsed into cardiac arrest".

In December, Kevin Hodgson was at his Newton-le-Willows home when he began to "suddenly shake".

He then collapsed into cardiac arrest, Warrington Coroner’s Court heard on Wednesday.

Mr Hodgson sadly died on December 29 last year at Warrington Hospital.

Due to his cause of death being unnatural, senior coroner for Cheshire Jacqueline Devonish formally opened an inquest.

The hearing will take place in July.
