Police incident tape (pic by Freefotouk)

A young Nantwich man found hanged was today named by friends as Ben Jones.

The 22-year-old’s body was found by a passerby hanging from the footbridge over the River Weaver, close to Nantwich Pool.

Police cordoned off the area after the grim discovery at around 5.45am yesterday (April 24).

Messages paying tribute to Ben, from Nantwich, have been posted by friends on social sites such as Facebook and Twitter.

Cheshire Police have yet to formally identify the body, but say there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding his death.

The coroner is likely to open an inquest into the death in the next couple of days.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
