Butane

A Hereford schoolboy is recovering in hospital from FOUR heart attacks after sniffing butane gas. Lanterns and balloons were released for 15-year-old Aylestone Business and Enterprise College pupil Luke Simpkins in the city last night.

Hundreds of people turned out to show their support for Luke, who has been taken out of intensive care and is now being looked after on the children's ward. Chris Hayes, Luke's uncle was there and spoke to our reporter Iona Hansell.
