British Child Dies At A Hotel In Egypt!


British Child From London Dies At A Hotel In Egypt!

Locator map of Sharm el-Sheikh in EgyptA young child called Chloe Johnson from London has sadly lost her life in a pool on a holiday to Egypt.
Chloe Johnson was on a holiday with her family to a hotel called Coral Sea Waterworld Hotel in the very popular tourist area of Sharm el Sheikh in Egypt. Coral Sea Waterworld Hotel is one of the most popular Red Sea holiday destinations in the whole of Egypt and is the last place you would expect a death to occur…

The holiday company ‘First Choice’ have announced that a full investigation will be held into Chloe’s sudden and devastating death at the very waterpark where her body was recovered. The hotels manager Ashraf Khalil quoted: “We are sorry this has happened”, but I am sure this isn’t enough for the family, friends and relatives of Chloe Johnson. Chloe’s grandmother told Sky News that her granddaughter (Chloe) was “a lovely, lovely girl” who was “intelligent for her age”. Chloe is the last person you’d expect to lose her life due to an activity in a pool and I am sure that her family are absolutely devastated and heartbroken.

A spokeswoman for the holiday company ‘First Choice’ said: "First Choice can sadly confirm that a child has died while staying at the Coral Sea Waterworld hotel in Egypt. The incident occurred in a pool in the hotel's waterpark." She continued: "In partnership with the hotelier, our resort team are working to understand how the incident occurred, and we will be carrying out a full and thorough investigation". “At this time our priority is to provide support to the family."

The hotel manager said that the hotel and First Choice have organised for a group of investigators from the UK to fly to Egypt and to the hotel to try to figure out what happened. He said: "The hotel is waiting to finalise its investigation into what happened together with the official investigation of the Egyptian district attorney and Egyptian police”. "We want to see the facts and the most important fact here is that our hearts and souls are with the family and with little Chloe”. "We have moved them from the scene of the hotel so they can at least not be in premises where the accident happened."

He also added: "When the investigation concludes we will be able to give answers."

This is a very sad story indeed and it just comes to show that accidents like this can still happen to this very day. RIP Chloe Johnson…
