A
37-year-old
Burnham-On-Sea man has died after apparently falling down the
steps in a night-time accident at a High Street night club.
Jonathan
Cotton of Dyrham Close, Burnham, died after the incident at Shakers
Night Club, pictured.
He
was taken to Weston General Hospital but died later.
Sgt
Roger Tolley of Burnham Police said: "There was an incident
at Shakers where a man fell. We weren't called but we were in
the area, although he declined any assistance from us and the
ambulance crews as far as I am aware."
"As
far as we know he was taken to hospital by friends or family and
there has been no further police investigation."
Police
are not treating the death as suspicious and it has been passed
to the coroner. The funeral service for Mr Cotton was held at
St Andrew's Church and was followed by a cremation at Taunton
Deane Crematorium.
