AN NHS investigation is underway after a 79-year-old man dying of cancer was sexually assaulted in his hospital bed by a fellow patient.
The pensioner was attacked at the 75-bed Bradwell Hospital by the man with mental health problems who burst into his side room.

It is understood the patient had to be restrained by a nurse.
Police were called to the hospital following last week's incident, but are taking no further action because of the poor health of the two men involved.
