• A teenager reportedly suffered a seizure and cardiac arrest before his death at the Barry Island Pleasure Park in Wales

• 16-year-old Taha Soomro, from Grangetown in Cardiff, died on May 23

• An inquest into his death was opened on Tuesday, Nov. 18, where the coroner told the court Soomro’s suspected cause of death. The case was subsequently adjourned

A 16-year-old boy suffered a suspected seizure and cardiac arrest before his tragic death at a theme park in Wales, according to the coroner.

Taha Soomro, from Grangetown in Cardiff, died at Barry Island Pleasure Park on May 23 of this year, per a previous South Wales Police news release.

“Police were called just before 5 p.m. [local time on Friday, May 23] with a report of a 16-year-old teenage boy suffering a medical episode,” an initial police news release stated, adding, “Despite efforts of emergency services, Taha died at the scene.”

According to an inquest opening at the coroner’s court in Pontypridd on Tuesday, Nov. 18, details of the teenager’s “medical episode” at the park were discussed, per the BBC.

A post-mortem examination was inconclusive after being conducted at Cardiff’s University Hospital of Wales, the outlet stated.

A court usher and admin assistant for the Coroner’s Office in Pontypridd confirmed to PEOPLE that a coroner had told the court on Tuesday that Soomro suffered a suspected seizure and cardiac arrest at Barry Island Pleasure Park on May 23, and that his death remains “unascertained.”

However, they said they were “unable to provide further information regarding this matter” at this time.

The case has now been adjourned, the court usher and admin assistant also confirmed.

“Once a case is opened for an Inquest, it is common practice to adjourn the matter to acquire all the relevant evidence to assist the Coroner in making a determination of fact at a future date,” they told PEOPLE in an email.

South Wales Police had previously responded on May 23 after receiving reports that Soomro was in an apparent cardiac arrest at the park, with initial reports suggesting he was believed to be having a seizure and cardiac arrest, per Wales Online.

Coroner Graeme Hughes said during Tuesday’s inquest opening, “I have heard evidence this morning touching on the death of Taha Ali Soomro. On the information I have heard it’s necessary to open an inquest,” according to the outlet.

An inquest date is yet to be fixed, Wales Online reported.

According to the previous police release, a 15-year-old boy was previously arrested on suspicion of assault, but an update on May 25 stated he was out on bail pending further enquiries.
