Woman died in crash after her husband 'blacked out'

CAR VEERED ACROSS THE ROAD AND COLLIDED WITH A TREE

- By GARETH HUGHES

A PENSIONER was killed as she and her husband made their way home because he was feeling unwell.

Trevor and Doreen Brough, from Blythe Bridge Road, Caverswall, Stoke-on-Trent, were only a short distance from their second home in Mochdre, Colwyn Bay, when he lost control of their Peugeot Partner car.

An inquest heard that after mounting the nearside kerb it crossed into the opposite carriageway of the A547, narrowly missing oncoming traffic, before crashing into a tree and becoming wedged against a wall.

Mrs Brough, 77, who was not wearing a seat-belt, suffered multiple injuries and was flown to Ysbyty Glan Clwyd, Bodelwyddan, but died early the following day.
