Tragically, a young man passed away after his best friend’s practical joke backfired.
Conner Groom, a 22-year-old from Clacton-on-Sea, died five weeks after sustaining a “catastrophic” spine injury.
Following news of Groom’s passing, people have praised him on social media.
“So sad,” comments a Facebook user. We are thinking of his family and friends.
“Bless him, lovely lad gone,” says a second. So sad.
A third individual writes, “RIP, what a terrible tragedy.”
