Police are awaiting toxicology results after the body of a man was discovered inside a property in south Lowestoft more than a month ago.

Emergency services were called to London Road South in Kirkley, Lowestoft on Friday, August 20 after concerns were raised for a man's welfare.

After officers gained entry to the property, the man was pronounced dead at the scene and investigations were launched.

With the man’s death still being treated as "unexplained at this stage", police however said this week that there are not believed to be any suspicious circumstances, as they wait for the results of toxicology reports.

Officers arrived at the scene just after 10.20am on August 20, with onlookers describing a large police presence throughout the day.
