AMBULANCE crews battled to revive a woman who collapsed at a house in Halesowen, but died later in hospital.

They were called to a house in Nimmings Road, Shell Corner, shortly before 2.20am on Thursday April 14 and carried out chest compressions – cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) - on the woman.

A West Midlands Ambulance spokesman said two ambulances and a paramedic area support officer attended the emergency and the woman, who has not been named, was taken to Sandwell Hospital.

Her death has been reported to the coroner and investigations, including a post mortem examination, are being conducted.
