An inquest hears that four members of a family die after they “get into trouble” in the sea at Shoreham. The coroner records that the deaths happen in circumstances described as dangerous and linked to the sea incident at the location.

The reports note the coroner offers condolences to the relatives. While both outlets cover the same inquest and broadly similar wording about the circumstances, they primarily differ in how much direct detail they provide beyond the coroner’s description and the formal message to the family. Neither report indicates a disputed account of what occurred, but both frame the deaths as resulting from the incident in the water and the loss of four relatives.

The inquest is presented as the setting where the circumstances are assessed, with the coroner’s comments and the shared description of events forming the central common information across the coverage.
