    STUART MILES LONG, otherwise known as, CAMERON TURNER · Prevention of Future Deaths report

    This summary was generated using AI from the published report. Please read the original report for the complete account.

    Report summary

    Stuart Long was struck by a van and subsequently hit or run over by at least three other vehicles after stepping or running into the A30 carriageway on 22 December 2013. He had mental health issues and alcohol misuse, and the principal concern was confusion about how to respond when anti-social behaviour involved a person who was intoxicated or mentally unwell; the report stated that taking him to a place of safety would have prevented him from jumping in front of cars.

    How this individual concern was interpreted

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the report wording shown below. The report was sent to Cornwall Council; that does not assign responsibility.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to take people exhibiting dangerous behaviour while intoxicated or mentally unwell to a place of safety

    Wider context from the report

    “In the early hours of the morning of his death, Mr Long was removed by police from his home address due to inappropriate behaviour (involving a vulnerable adult) while in drink. Mr Long had long term mental health issues and misused alcohol and was known to behave inappropriately when both of these issues deteriorated. On this occasion he was seen by members of the public to be jumping in front of cars. These behaviour was known to the mental health professional who worked with him. It appeared from the inquest that there was some confusion as to how to appropriately deal with anti-social behaviour when someone was in drink/mentally unwell. If Mr Long had been taken to a place of safety he would not have been able to jump in front of cars/die. In addition, his actions could have caused more accidents and/or led to the death of others. ”
