Bodybuilder inquest continues in Kendal
The inquest into the death of a bodybuilder, who was tasered by police, has started in Kendal.
Dale Burns, from Barrow, died in August last year.
Coroner tells jurors that Dale took anabolic steroids and other drugs. This led to contact with police and medics prior to the day he died.
From @robsmithitv on Twitter:Police were called to Dale's home after a neighbour heard noises and found water pouring from his flat. He was half naked and "agitated".
From @robsmithitv on Twitter:Dale told officers he'd taken a drug called "Mad Cat". His bathroom was badly damaged - hence the leak. Police called an ambulance.
