Man arrested for murder after woman's tragic death 'would try to help again'

A man was arrested on suspicion of murder after he tried to save a woman who was tragically crushed under a wardrobe.

Chloe Haynes, 21, was found dead in her room at the Adelphi Hotel, Liverpool, by her friend during the early hours of September 10. It is understood that she had been staying there with a work friend after travelling from Pwllheli, Wales, for a night out.

Following the discovery of her body, her friend and two other hotel guests were arrested on suspicion of murder by Merseyside Police. However, they were later released without any further actions, with police now treating the death as "accidental" and said "there were no suspicious circumstances".

Among those arrested was Wayne Kenny, 46, who said he heard a "commotion near his door" on the morning of the incident. Speaking to the Liverpool Echo, he said: "I was staying at the Adelphi and I got up in the morning and at first I heard the commotion outside the door and heard some guy say 'she's not breathing' and I thought 'did I hear that right then?'.

"So I got dressed and that as I was going to go out with my boys. I had a day out planned for me and the two boys. I came out of the room and as I walked past the door was open." Wayne recalled that a man was attempting to give Chloe CPR, however, he felt that he was better suited to help and asked: "Can you please let me try?"

"I have had some experience, but not fully medically trained obviously." He added. "I went in and I tried to give Chloe CPR. I think what I am struggling with is the fact I have done that now knowing she had been dead for hours. I had no idea."
