A man from Guernsey who nearly died after a cardiac arrest has thanked the strangers who gave him CPR.

Lynette Symons and Paul Hancock were sat next to Rick Denton when he collapsed and his heart stopped at the cafe at Les Cotils.

They and Steve Ford, the training manager for St John's, gave Mr Denton lifesaving CPR and used a defibrillator to shock him back to life, before paramedics arrived.
