    Report summary

    Casper Blackburn died in the early hours of 1 October 2017 after entering the Bridgewater canal in unclear circumstances; the medical cause of death was drowning. Concern was raised that extremely poor lighting, and the absence of CCTV, made the canal difficult to distinguish from the surrounding grass verge and path, creating a risk of future deaths.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of CCTV coverage in the area

    Wider context from the report

    “The lighting in the area where Casper likely accidentally entered the canal was extremely poor. There is no CCTV in the area and therefore what precisely happened on the morning of Casper’s death is unclear. Evidence was heard that police attended the scene at night on a date following Casper’s death. The area was so dark that it was very difficult to discern the canal from the grass verge or the path. I am concerned that future deaths might occur if action is not taken to address this. ”
