The squalor 999 crew found in dying man’s home
The two men were sent to Barry Baker’s home in Brighton, East Sussex, on November 29 after he dialled 999 saying he thought he was having a heart attack. It is understood Mr Baker, 59, who lived alone, collapsed while on the phone to emergency controllers but the line to the control centre remained open when the crew arrived.
It has been alleged that operators heard the ambulancemen make derogatory comments about the untidy state of Mr Baker’s home.
