The family of a late Nottinghamshire market trader say they feel as though they are still waiting for answers after his death. David Knight, who ran The Market Cobbler at the Idlewells Indoor Market, in Sutton-in-Ashfield , died at Queen’s Medical Centre on July 19 2021 after enduring a double leg amputation.
An inquest concluded at Nottingham Council House today (July 29), found that the 62-year-old of Kirkby-in-Ashfield had died due to a number of factors. Assistant coroner Elizabeth Didcock said he passed away after multi organ failure that was contributed to by a fat embolism and his underlying peripheral arterial disease.
Speaking to Nottinghamshire Live after the inquest, Mr Knight's daughter Nicky Paylor said her dad had gone through hell. “At least we have got some answers now on what they deem it was," she said.
