RockNess Festival-Goer Dies At 2009 Event

A 22-year-old man died after attending the RockNess festival in Scotland over the weekend.

The man, who has not been named, was treated by paramedics at the event on Saturday evening, but died later in hospital.

He is known to have suffered from a pre-existing medical condition and had fallen ill after arriving at the festival around midday on Saturday, police said.

Event Commander Ch Supt Andy Cowie told the BBC: "It is a very sad time for the young man's family and friends and our sympathies are with them at this time."

It is the third such tragedy at RockNess in the last three years. The other deaths were both drugs related.

RockNess takes place on the banks of Loch Ness and this year featured performances from the likes of The Prodigy and Flaming Lips.
