Questions remain over ditch death

Mr Larson's body was found near the Humber bridge

Post-mortem tests on a man found dead in a ditch proved inconclusive, police said.

A passer-by discovered the body of 53-year-old Thomas Larson from west Hull on Friday.

Police divers recovered the remains from the ditch which runs between the foreshore and Hessle Rugby club near the Humber bridge.

Detective Superintendent Colin Andrews told BBC Radio Humberside the police have a number of questions about the death: "First of all we want to establish exactly how Mr Larson ended up in this ditch and how he got to Hessle.

"We want to be certain no other person was involved in Mr Larson's death."
