Family Pays Tribute to Daisy House, 16, After Fatal Loughton Tube Incident

Police say the case is not being treated as suspicious, with a coroner’s file now in preparation.

Overview

  • British Transport Police were called to Loughton Underground station just after 2:30pm on December 15 following reports of a casualty on the tracks.
  • Paramedics attended and Daisy House was taken to hospital in a life-threatening condition, where she later died despite medical efforts.
  • Daisy’s family released a statement on December 20 describing her as bright, beautiful, clever and funny, and noting she had recently started Sixth Form.
  • The family thanked emergency services, singling out a British Transport Police officer and paediatric nurses for their kindness and efforts.
  • Transport for London suspended services between Epping and Woodford while the scene was secured, and floral tributes have since been left as the family requested privacy and shared a photograph of Daisy.
