THE sudden death of a Runcorn man is not being treated as suspicious, say police.

A 31-year-old man was found at the back of a house in Waterloo Road shortly before 11am on Easter Sunday.

A Cheshire police spokesman said today: “At 10.58am on March 27 police were called to a sudden death at an address in Waterloo Road in Runcorn.

“A 31-year-old man had been found at the rear of the address. “Police investigated and established there were no suspicious circumstances.”

A file is being prepared for the coroner.
