An inquest has heard that a 28-year-old Chorley man died after consuming alcohol combined with class A drugs.

Roger Hoole, 28, from Heapey, died at the Premier Inn, Whittle-le-Woods, in October last year.

Mr Hoole had arrived at the hotel in the early hours of October 26 with a female after having drinks with friends. He was discovered by hotel staff in his room at noon and an ambulance was called, but he could not be revived and died at the scene.

Coroner Nicola Mundy recorded a narrative verdict and said: "Mr Hoole died from multiple drug toxicity including self-administered cocaine and alcohol."
