Man suffers stroke after learning of dad's death in Gilfach Goch bus tragedy

A 24-year-old man suffered a devastating stroke after finding out his dad had died in a bus depot crash in Gilfach Goch. Nicky Rees, of Treorchy, collapsed upon being informed of the news of his father's passing on July 15.

Nicky's father, who was 47, died following a collision between two buses at a yard in Evanstown, Gilfach Goch. On Friday, the Health and Safety Executive confirmed it was making enquiries alongside officers from South Wales Police.

Nicky's father-in-law Chris Daly explained: "My daughter said he just sort of went white and started to shake. She thought it was a seizure or a heart attack, or something, but he just collapsed to the floor.
