Dancing girl death ‘natural’
A WOMAN of 22 who collapsed and died while dancing in a packed pub shortly after a fight broke out was killed by a rare genetic condition, her family said yesterday.
Kirsty Thompson was found slumped on the floor soon after police broke up the fight between four men at the Walkabout bar in Plymouth.
Her family believes she may have died of sudden adult death syndrome – a condition which also killed her girl cousin.
Despite an inconclusive post mortem, police are not treating her death as suspicious.
