A teenage dad who suffered from epilepsy died after collapsing while in custody.

Billy Salton, 19, of Edgeley, Stockport, had handed himself in at Cheadle Heath police station as a warrant was out for his arrest in connection with an alleged burglary.

A packed court included solicitors acting for the family, Greater Manchester Police and healthcare firm Medacs whose doctor was sent to the police station.

The court heard how in the months before his death Mr Salton, who had worked as a greenkeeper at Reddish Vale Golf Club, suffered an increase in epileptic fits, on occasion as many as 15 a day.

As a result his medication levels Ahmad Brooks Authentic Jersey had been increased to control the condition, although he would sometimes forget to take it.

He lived in Hollywood Towers but had been Antoine Bethea 49ers Jersey sleeping rough and at a friends house to avoid arrest.

His sister Kayleigh Salton had persuaded him to hand himself in late on July 4, 2012, five days before his death in hospital.

Miss Salton said: "At least then I knew he was in safe hands rather than sleeping rough."

Sergeant Michael Dagnall, who was on duty that night, said he had no concerns about Mr Salton's welfare at that time. He was put on a schedule to be checked every 30 minutes and in a cell with CCTV but not to be roused if he was sleeping.

A doctor from Medacs visited Mr Salton but he told staff he had no http://www.official49ersnflauthentic.com/WOMENS-ERIC-REID-JERSEY.html medication with him and none at home.

Coroner Joanne Kearsely said that CCTV footage showed him having a 'fit or Antoine Bethea Authentic Jersey seizure' but Sgt Dagnall said he had not noticed that. There was another sergeant and four civilian workers on duty at the time.

Sgt Dagnall said: "As a general rule people do glance at the (CCTV monitor) screen between doing work. There's not enough individuals to have one person sat there watching the screens.

"There is a play back feature not everyone is trained to use. People have been trained since."

It was said Mr Salton had become agitated by the standard of his food after around 24 hours in custody but then calmed down.

Speaking outside the inquest Mr Salton's mum Joanne Hynd said the burglary allegation related to an incident at the house of his partner, who was the mother of his child.

She added: "He was a brilliant Ahmad Brooks Womens Jersey son, brother and dad. He wanted so much to be a dad. He would always be there for you and make time for you."

Both Mr Salton's mum and sister appeared at the inquest wearing t shirts with pictures of him on in a tribute.
