Martin Hughes’ family are demanding answers, saying the wait could have killed the pensioner.
A suspected stroke victim had a second seizure after being left for three hours in an ambulance at a hospital.
Brother-in-law Hugh Robertson said: “The wait not only endangered the life of a very ill man but tied up an ambulance crew for hours, which meant they were unable to attend anyone else. He was not alone – there were a number of ambulances waiting with patients to be allowed into the building. It seems that this is normal now.
