Susan and John Cooper from Burnley fell ill after hotel room next door was treated for bed bug infestation
Two British holidaymakers John and Susan Cooper, who fell ill suddenly in their hotel room at a resort in Egypt, died from carbon monoxide poisoning after the room next door was sprayed with pesticide to kill bed bugs, a coroner has ruled.
John Cooper, 69, and his wife, Susan Cooper, 63, from Burnley, Lancashire, had been enjoying a “brilliant” holiday while staying at the Steigenberger Aqua Magic hotel in the Red Sea resort of Hurghada in August 2018, Preston coroner’s court heard.
