A man has died following two people collapsing within less than 24 hours of each other outside a high street supermarket.

One man had to be revived by paramedics after being found unconscious outside Iceland, in High Street, Gillingham, at 2.40pm on Tuesday.

Spokesman for SECAMB Rich Airey said: "Two ambulances and two cars were sent to the scene.

"The patient was flown to William Harvey Hospital, Ashford by the air ambulance."

Police officers were also on the scene to assist ambulance crews.

Sadly he passed away in the early hours of Wednesday morning in hospital.

His family said: "The Iceland manager was fantastic.

"We want to thank the police and ambulance crews, they did absolutely everything they could and were there immediately.

"The air ambulance team were so quick we are really grateful to them and can't get that across enough."

Then, at 12.25pm Wednesday a person was found unconscious behind the store.

They have been taken to Medway Maritime Hospital and are said to be in a serious condition.
