Emergency service crews were called to a supermarket in Ramsgate after a person collapsed and died this morning.

Police were spotted helping paramedics at the Lidl store in Margate Road.

Ambulance service spokesman Richard Airey said: "We responded to a report that someone had collapsed and wasn't responding.

"We sent two crews and two paramedic cars who tried to resuscitate the person.

"Sadly it was unsuccessful and they were pronounced dead at the scene.

"We are grateful to the person who made the 999 call just before 8.30am this morning."
