Ex-boxer Bruno in mental hospital

FORMER British heavyweight boxing champion Frank Bruno was last night receiving treatment at a mental hospital after being taken from his home by medics.

A police source said officers had assisted in removing the father-of-three from his home near Brentwood, Essex, under the terms of mental health legislation. He was transferred into the care of a local mental health NHS trust.

Essex police said “We have been assisting ambulance crews to remove a patient from an address near Brentwood.”
