CORONER’S CONCERNS 

The MATTERS OF CONCERNS are as follows: - 

That this is the fourth such death within three years of people attending the multi-
storey  car  park  at  the  Arndale  Centre with  the specific  purpose of  jumping  from  a 
height thereby killing themselves.

ACTION SHOULD BE TAKEN 

In  my  opinion  action  should  be  taken  to  prevent  future  deaths  and  I  believe  that
