Street row caused Norwich man's death (UK)

"A popular Norwich greengrocer suffered a heart attack and died because of an argument moments before, an inquest heard today. Roy Wymer, 61, was walking with his dogs on Bowthorpe Road when he became embroiled in a row with a passer-by. Punches were thrown and shortly after the father-of-two and grandfather-of-two, who ran a fruit and vegetable delivery business from his home in Beverley Road, collapsed and later died in the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital. At the inquest into his death, Norwich Coroner's Court heard that, despite the fact Mr Wymer had suffered a previous heart attack, it was unlikely he would have suffered the fatal one, had the row not have taken place" - Norwich Evening News
