A coroner has raised concerns about police response protocols following the deaths of Jayden Long and Eddie Hill on Crib y Ddysgl. The men died after a dropped 999 call was inadequately escalated, with police taking over three hours to alert mountain rescue teams. The coroner noted significant risks to future lives if these issues are not addressed.
North Wales Police has since revised its policies to improve handling of emergency calls from remote areas. Changes include better training for staff and clearer guidelines for alerting rescue teams when calls are disconnected or silent.
