Mother heard husband kill sons

A MOTHER listened on the phone as her estranged husband killed himself and their four young children, an inquest in Wales heard yesterday.

Farm labourer Keith Young, 38, drove his sons Joshua, seven, Thomas, six, Callum, five and Daniel, three to a beauty spot near Llangollen, North Wales.

Mr Young, from Winsford, Cheshire, then gassed them by running a petrol lawnmower in the back of the family car. He was separated from his wife Samantha but was seeing the boys on an access visit.
