Colin James Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 The body of a man has been found in the park beside Castle Pool pond, Hereford, this morning. Police have sealed off the area with a crime scene team at work on Cantilupe Street. The death is currently being investigated as "unexplained". A passer-by found the body just before 7am this morning. From HT The Gardens, off Cantilupe Street next to the Castle Pool duck pond, were sealed off this morning while a crime scene team searched for clues. As yet, police have not formally identified the deceased - a middle-aged man - or confirmed a cause of death. Work is underway on tracing the movements of individuals matching the description of the deceased through the city yesterday. A post mortem is planned for either tomorrow or Monday.

twowheelsgood Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 I believe he was one of four who died in the area from a batch of bad drugs, but I haven't seen any official report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
