A father found his epileptic daughter drowned in a bath, an inquest heard yesterday.
Emma Wild who lived with her father at Prospect Close, Windhill, Shipley, had run a bath for herself, but had a fit and fell forwards, the Bradford hearing was told.
Her head and arms were in the water when her father went to see why she was taking so long and she was dead by the time he found her.
Miss Wild’s death occurred on March 19, but her last fit had been in 2009.
Acting Coroner Professor Paul Marks recorded a verdict of accidental death.
