A heart-wrenching incident unfolded at Tiffany’s Hotel on the Promenade in Blackpool when 10-year-old Jack Piper-Sheach was discovered unresponsive on Sunday, September 3, at approximately 10:39 pm. The seaside resort was left in shock when the young boy, reportedly from Wales, succumbed to his injuries four days later while surrounded by his grieving family at a hospital in Liverpool.
Police investigations have revealed that Jack’s injuries were consistent with exposure to a “high voltage of electricity,” marking the tragic circumstances surrounding his untimely passing. As a result, Blackpool Coroner’s Court is set to open an inquest into the matter, with the hearing scheduled to take place on Friday, presided over by Coroner Alan Wilson.
In response to this tragic incident, Lancashire Police initiated an initial investigation but have since handed the case over to the local authority. A police spokesperson expressed their condolences to Jack’s family and confirmed that a file would be prepared for HM Coroner.
