A 'bubbly' 12-year-old girl died suddenly as she was playing in the park with her brother, sister and two cousins.
Phoebe Smith, 12, from Croxteth, was playing on the swings in Calderstones Park with her older brother, 13, younger sister, nine, and two cousins on Saturday, March 5, as their parents sat on the grass nearby. Phoebe's mum, auntie and uncle first realised something was wrong when the kids came over and told them the 12-year-old was lying on the ground.
The family went over to the swings and found Phoebe unconscious lying on the ground. They immediately called 999 and the North West Ambulance Service arrived at the scene.
