Police warn clubbers after ecstasy death
A man in his thirties has died after taking what is believed to be ecstasy. He collapsed at the Fridge nightclub in Brixton at 4.30am on Sunday.
When an ambulance arrived two men had collapsed, one of them was pronounced dead on arrival at hospital. The other man’s condition is described as serious but stable.
The deceased has been identified by family but a post mortem and formal ID has yet to take place.
