'Caring' Bristol student, 20, died after taking MDMA and ketamine at club night

A ‘caring’ 20-year-old student who had hoped to build a music career in Bristol died after taking MDMA and ketamine at a club night, an inquest heard.

James Diss suffered an extreme reaction to the drugs while attending an event at The Warehouse Project in Manchester in the early hours of September 25. He was rushed to Manchester Royal Infirmary but sadly died a short time later, reports Manchester Evening News.

Following his inquest senior coroner Nigel Meadows warned taking drugs is 'simply playing Russian roulette with your life'.
