A father of three from Wales, David’s family have said his provisional cause of death was blunt force trauma after being struck on the back of his head, Wales Online reported.

His devastated family have been left to remember him as “an absolutely amazing father, partner, son, brother, and friend”.

He was dad to three young kids – Aurora, four, Bear, two, and Vienna one.

David’s sister-in-law Tammy Sheehan, cousin Gemma Thomas and partner Jola Simms revealed he had returned from a family holiday on Thursday, then jetting to Prague on Friday for a pal’s stag do.

By 10pm that night, Jola and Gemma both received a horror call from David’s friend Nathan, who informed them he was in a critical condition.

Family members flew into Prague, hoping David would regain consciousness.

But by Saturday afternoon the heartbreaking decision was made to switch off life support machines.

Family members have insisted he wasn’t in a brawl but rather fell victim to a blind attack.

They said: “David was talking to locals in the street when he took a blow to the back of the head.”

A French witness was said to have given first aid on the scene to no avail.

Family described the Czech authorities as “abrupt” and “blunt”, which they said made the horror experience even worse.
