Police appeal for help to identify 'distinctively' tattooed man found dead in wheelie bin
Police seek public help to identify a man with distinctive tattoos found dead in a council bin; investigators believe he was hit by a vehicle before being moved to the park.
- A member of the public discovered an unidentified man's body in a Coventry City Council wheelie bin on Friday, March 13, at Cashs Park off Daimler Road in Coventry, believed aged 40 to 50.
- West Midlands Police believe the man may have been struck by a vehicle before being moved to the park; officers are working with Coventry City Council to determine where the bin was originally located.
- Detectives released descriptions of two distinctive tattoos: a cross entwined with a snake and "Little Stardust" on his back, plus a "nan" tattoo with a clover and Irish flag colours on his right arm.
- Detective Chief Inspector Phil Poole stated the force is working "around the clock" with detectives and forensic specialists, urging anyone recognizing the tattoos to come forward and "get the answers that he deserves."
- Anyone with dashcam or CCTV footage should contact West Midlands Police via 101, quoting log 4148 of 13 March, as officers have received several pieces of information and are also seeking the bin's owner.
