Inquest into fireplace accident adjourned
Gardaí told Cork City Coroner Myra Cullinane yesterday that they have submitted to the DPP’s office a file on the investigation into all the circumstances surrounding the death of Fionn Dawson at the family home in Coolgreen, Whites Cross in Co Cork, in April 2013.
It was reported at the time that the chimney breast in Fionn’s family home may have cracked or buckled, causing the fireplace or masonry to fall on to him shortly after he returned from playschool on April 30, 2013.
