Girl, 18, was 'strangled to death by own scarf in freak go-karting accident'

A teenager was strangled to death by her scarf in a freak go-karting accident after being given no safety instructions before she took to the track, an inquest heard.

Suzanne Cornwell, 18, was fatally injured when the garment got caught in the engine of her kart during an out-of-hours race in December 2009 - the first time she had ever tried the sport.

An inquest into her death today in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, heard how Suzanne was one of six friends invited to the track by employee Andy Kivlin.
