Charlie died the following day at Newcastle's Royal Victoria Infirmary from the "catastrophic effects of a head injury" after he had been "shaken or thrown with such violence", Mr Lumley said.

Charlie Roberts was 22 months old when he collapsed with a "catastrophic" head injury at his home in Darlington in January, Teesside Crown Court heard.

The vessel suffered a catastrophic failure as it neared the sea floor, killing all five people onboard.

The ICJ considers the claims made by South Africa about possible rights violations constituting genocide to be plausible, and that the consequence of waiting for the ruling could be catastrophic.

The kind of “catastrophic event” that could cause something like this would be a crash or a derailment in which a cell is damaged, says Jon Hughes, managing director of UK Fire Training.
