Hereford man died of natural causes says police

Police have named a man who died in Hereford on Thursday.

The 63-year-old man who died in the incident on Thursday 8 June has been identified as Paul Dabin, from Putson in Hereford. Paul’s next of kin have been informed and are being supported by a family liaison officer.

Police were called to Brook Retail Park in Hereford in the early hours of Thursday morning after a man suffered cardiac arrest and was taken to hospital where he sadly died.

The death was initially treated as suspicious while officers continued their work to establish the circumstances around Paul’s death.

On Friday 9 June a post-mortem examination was carried with the preliminary results established that he died of natural causes with no evidence of assault.

Paul’s death is not now being treated as suspicious and is now being dealt with by the coroner.

Detective Chief Inspector Leighton Harding said: “My thoughts are very much with Paul’s family at this sad time.

“I would like to also thank the public and local businesses for their patience and understanding whilst we conducted our investigation.”
