Boy dies as sand tunnel collapses

[Ascendancy]

A 15-year-old boy has died after a tunnel dug in sand dunes collapsed around him.

Paramedics tried to resuscitate the boy after he was pulled out of the sand at Cefn Sidan beach, near Burry Port in Carmarthenshire, at 1910 BST.

The teenager was airlifted to Morriston Hospital in Swansea but doctors there pronounced him dead.

I remember seeing a reconstruction of something like this on that old 999 program. Can't imagine it being a very nice way to go

A tunnel through sand eh?

Surely, a 15 year old boy would have more common sense.
