Paramedics attend a flat in Blackpool to treat a man who had gone into cardiac arrest, only to discover he was suffering from an internal bleed caused by an earlier assault in a drug war.
When paramedics attended a first floor flat in Scorton Avenue, Blackpool , they were met with a dingy scene. A window by the front door was broken and the flat was strewn with discarded needles, pipes and bottles. Slumped on the sofa was John Hutchinson. The 44-year-old was seriously unwell. He had gone into cardiac arrest , and suspecting he had overdosed, paramedics immediately set to work administering emergency medicine.
Unbeknown to them, Mr Hutchinson, known as Hutchy, was suffering an internal bleed from a ruptured spleen. Three hours before they arrived at the flat, at 9:10pm on April 10, 2023, Hutchy had been assaulted by a group of men who had gone to settle a score. It was, as prosecutor Simon Driver said, a "tit for tat drugs war" gone badly wrong.
