Kinsale teen dies after freak accident

A Kinsale teenager who trapped his neck on railings in a freak accident died in hospital last night.

14-year-old Leon Connon had been on life support at Cork University Hospital.

Initial reports suggested that Leon complained of feeling unwell and went to rest near the 4ft-high railings at The Orchards estate in the town, before collapsing or fainting, trapping his head in the upper railings.
