Wolverhampton lifeguard convicted after dad dies in swimming pool
A LIFEGUARD has been found guilty of failing to take care of swimmers on the day a dad died in a Midland swimming pool.
Alex Cotterill had been responsible for baths at the Walsall campus of Wolverhampton University when the body of father-of-three Adrian Miles was recovered.
Mr Miles, 48, had been lying at the bottom of the pool for at least 25 minutes.
Cotterill, 28, of Penn, Wolverhampton, sat motionless as a jury at Wolverhampton Crown Court found him guilty of breaching a duty of work.
He will be sentenced at a later date.
