Two men have been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter after the death of a holidaymaker from suspected carbon monoxide poisoning, according to the Lancashire Constabulary. Graham Holden died at the Royal Bar & Hotel in Morecambe in November last year after a suspected gas leak.
Enquiries showed the 66-year-old had a 'high level of carbon monoxide in his blood'. Police were called to a separate incident just one month later, when guests were evacuated from the hotel on Boxing Day.
At least six adults and five children were taken to Royal Lancaster Infirmary for treatment. Officers discovered that a month earlier, Mr Holden 66, had died at the hotel. Police have now confirmed a 41-year-old man from Morecambe and a 42-year-old man from Bolton le Sands have been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter.
