His mother Hayley Jones, called an ambulance and he was rushed to the hospital. Ben was placed in a coma for three hours after he became unresponsive and doctors woke him at around 2am on Sunday morning. He returned home on Monday and is expected to make a full recovery." When he got home, they tried to wakehim up and his brother Callum described him as being ‘dead in his arms’ because they couldn’t get him awake. We were lucky because doctors were telling us that he was could have had brain damage or even worse. The doctors said that if those lads had not got him home at that timethen we really could have lost him. He had a little bit of alcohol in his blood but there was a large dose of MDMA. We are so glad that Ben is home and alive when we could have been organising a funeral." Ben’s aunt said.North Wales Police confirmed they are investigating the incident. An Inspector, Chris Bell said: ‘To spike someone’s drink without their knowledge with something which is unwanted is very dangerous.
