Welsh rugby player Scot James, 34, dies after being punched by a security guard during an incident at a bar while he is on holiday in Turkey. Reports say the incident follows a verbal exchange, and James later dies in hospital. An inquest hears details of his injuries and the circumstances leading to his death.
Multiple outlets state that police in Turkey investigate the matter. The Daily Mail reports that James dies at Royal Glamorgan Hospital weeks later after traumatic head and brain injuries. Other coverage similarly describes him being punched, with family tributes cited by BBC News. Sources differ mainly in emphasis, with some focusing on the police investigation and others on the medical timeline and inquest findings.
Across reports, the core account remains that James is attacked by a security guard in a bar in Turkey, receives medical treatment, and dies days to weeks later, with authorities investigating what happened.
