A BIKER was resuscitated and taken to hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest at the Bulldog Bash.

The man in his 50s went to the First Aid tent at the festival at Long Marston Airfield with breathing difficulties.

When he got there he suffered the cardiac arrest and collapsed just after 7am today (Sunday).

A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “The event’s own medical team began CPR and used the defibrillator they had with them.




“Ambulance crews then went on to continue with treatment and the man began to regain consciousness on site.

 “He was then taken to University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire.”
