Driver, 14, died after losing control of car in police chase

An off-duty nurse tried to save two teenage boys after they were involved in a car crash.

An inquest was told that Leo Gradwell, 14, died after "losing control" of a Fiat 500 on Ashton Road, Golborne on October 11, 2019. The Fiat collided with a Kia Sportage and then a Renault Clio, leading to two passengers in the car also sustaining injuries.

Nurse Susan Lane told the second day of the inquest at Bolton Town Hall that she was driving home from shopping in Wigan when she spotted a car on its side in the middle of the road, the M.E.N reports. She told officers she was an off-duty nurse and was allowed closer to the scene of the crash.
