A three-month-old baby died after an ambulance took three times the target time to reach her because it stopped to refuel and then got lost twice.
Bella Hellings' mother Amy Carter called for an ambulance when the infant suffered a fit at home and stopped breathing.
But instead of reaching the infant within the recommended eight minutes it took paramedics - who were the third ambulance to be called - 26 minutes to arrive at the scene.
The health trust responsible for the crew has now identified a 'catalogue of errors' in a damning report into the tragedy.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
