'Loving' son, 27, dies from heart attack after 'chronic cannabis use'

A coroner has ruled that a man's sudden death from a heart attack was caused by chronic cannabis use.

Joshua Kerfoot fell ill during a Friday night out in October last year. The 27-year-old's sickness continued over the weekend and paramedics were called, but told his mum Angela that he was just suffering from a hangover.

However, Angela returned from a trip to the shops the next day to find her son "cold". He was rushed to hospital, where he was pronounced dead later that day.
