A teenage couple who died from suspected carbon monoxide poisoning at an East Yorkshire holiday park have been named by police.

Cherish Bean, 15, and Ethan Slater, 17, were discovered at a rental property at Little Eden holiday park, near Bridlington, on Wednesday.

Humberside police said a 42-year-old man had become the second person to be arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter over their deaths.

An extension has been granted in relation to a 33-year-old man who was arrested on Thursday, allowing police to detain him for a further 12 hours.

Ch Supt Matt Peach, Northbank divisional commander, said in a statement on Friday: “Our thoughts remain with the loved ones of both teenagers, who have been named by their families as 15-year-old Cherish Bean, and 17-year-old Ethan Slater, who tragically lost their lives.

“Specialist trained officers are providing ongoing support through this incredibly distressing time and I would ask again for people to refrain from speculation in respect of their privacy.

“Since we received the call of concern for safety on Wednesday morning, a dedicated team of detectives and specialist officers have continued to carry out detailed inquiries to establish the full circumstances surrounding the deaths, which are thought to be connected to carbon monoxide poisoning.”

An online fundraising page set up for Ethan’s family, who live in Sheffield, has raised more than £16,000 in two days.

The page says: “It is with unimaginable heartbreak that I write this. Our son Ethan tragically and unexpectedly passed away at just 17 years old, alongside his beautiful girlfriend.

“No parent should ever have to write these words. No family should ever have to face this pain.

“Ethan had his whole life ahead of him. He’ll never get to pass his driving test. He’ll never celebrate his 18th birthday. He’ll never reach the milestones we all assumed were waiting for him.

“He was just beginning his journey into adulthood, full of plans, laughter, and a future that was taken far too soon.”

Ethan was described as kind-hearted, warm, funny and protective.

“He carried himself with a quiet strength and loyalty that made us so proud to call him our son. He was loved beyond measure.”

Officers received call of concern for safety at the park on Wednesday. Some holidaymakers are understood to have been asked to leave the park, where families had gathered for the half-term school break.

A cordon remains in place at the park and police said they were continuing to work in coordination with the health and safety executive alongside Humberside Fire & Rescue and East Riding of Yorkshire council.
