A grieving family has paid a touching tribute to a beloved mother described as someone who brought light into every room she entered, as authorities look into her untimely death.
Hannah Fry, aged 29, fell ill at a residence on Meadow Croft in Longridge, Lancashire on July 13 while police were present at the location.
Despite being rushed to the hospital and receiving medical attention from emergency responders, she tragically could not be saved.
Following the incident, a 31-year-old man was initially detained on suspicion of coercive and controlling behavior and later re-arrested on suspicion of manslaughter. He has been released on bail as the investigation proceeds. Another man has also been arrested and released on bail, according to the police.
Kevin and Sarah Harcup, Hannah’s parents, expressed their devastation over the sudden loss of their daughter in a statement. They described her as a precious individual who brought joy and love to their lives.
Describing Hannah as a devoted mother to her two daughters, a loving family member, and a loyal friend, her parents highlighted her unique sense of humor and ability to brighten any room she walked into.
The Lancashire Police have classified Hannah’s death as unexplained, with investigations ongoing to determine the circumstances surrounding it.
The 31-year-old man arrested in connection with the incident has been granted bail with conditions while further inquiries are conducted. Additionally, a 23-year-old man linked to the reported offense that led to the police presence has also been released on bail with conditions.
The authorities have made a mandatory referral to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) and refrained from providing additional comments at this stage.
