Man with Irish tattoos found dead in wheelie bin in England as police begin probe
The man, who is guessed to be aged between 40 and 50, has yet to be identified.
A man with Irish tattoos has been found dead in a wheelie bin in an English city.
The man, who is guessed to be aged between 40 and 50, has yet to be identified.
He was found in a Coventry City Council wheelie bin in Cash’s Park at about 5pm on Friday, according to the Irish Times.
He had a tattoo of a cross with a snake wrapped around it on his back, along with the words 'Little Stardust.'
He also had a tattoo on his right arm saying 'nan' with a clover and the colours of the Irish flag.
Inquiries to identify the man and find out how he died have begun, with one theory being that he was hit by a vehicle before being moved to the Park.
A man and woman in their 40s and a man in his 20s have been arrested on suspicion of murder and assisting an offender.
Police are also investigating where the wheelie bin was moved from.
"All of these people remain in custody at this time while we continue to build a picture of what might have happened... We are continuing to appeal to anyone who might know more about what happened and whether they can help our investigation," Det Chief Insp Phil Poole, from West Midlands Police’s Major Crime Unit, said.
