A man who was rushed to hospital after getting trapped in the indoor caves at an adventure park has tragically died. Carl O'Keeffe was rescued from Kong Adventure Centre in Keswick following the incident on April 22.
However, his family announced earlier today the 49-year-old had passed away from his injuries. Carl had reportedly been at the centre for a birthday with four children when he slipped and found himself stuck.
The Mirror reports staff at the centre initially tried to rescue him and then emergency services were called. Six crews from Cumbria Fire and Rescue, police, Keswick Mountain Rescue, Cumbria Ore Mines Rescue Unit, Great North Air Ambulance and the Northwest Ambulance Service's Hazardous Area Response Team all attended.
