In December of last year, Sharon Greenham, 52, of Ambleside Avenue, Lancaster, was charged with manslaughter, theft from a meter/automatic machine and criminal damage.No evidence will now be offered against Sharon Greenham in respect of the manslaughter and criminal damage offences.
She will however face a trial in relation to a theft of gas charge at a later date.
The charges were brought in relation to Operation Kelton – the fatal gas explosion in Mallowdale Avenue, Heysham on May 16, 2021, which killed toddler George Arthur Hinds.
