Man suffered fatal brain bleed after falling down stairs at his Preston home, inquest told

Aurel Saghin was found unresponsive at the bottom of the stairs by his housemates at their shared house in Brook Street on April 23.

The 52-year-old banged his head during the fall which caused bleeding in his brain, an inquest at Preston Coroner’s Court heard on Friday (November 17).

Aurel, from Romania, had suffered previous bleeding within his brain, but Area Coroner Kate Bisset said it was “not possible to determine what caused him to fall.”

He sadly died as a result of the bleeding at Royal Preston Hospital on April 23, 2023.
