Woman dies after choking on food

A woman in her late 40s has died in hospital after choking on food while eating at a steakhouse restaurant in Aberdeen.

Paramedics and police attended the Miller and Carter premises in the city’s Union Street at about 7:10pm last Saturday and the woman was taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary by ambulance.

But medics were unable to save her and she died late on Wednesday. The tragedy happened in the Miller and Carter steakhouse chain, which opened a new restaurant in Aberdeen earlier this year.
