A murder inquiry has been launched over the death of a 40-year-old care worker whose body was found in a churchyard in the West Midlands.
A post-mortem examination confirmed Paul David Hadley, who was found near St John The Baptist Church, Halesowen, died as a result of a head injury.
The body of Mr Hadley, who was from Halesowen, was discovered in the churchyard on Wednesday morning.
He was drinking in pubs in the town centre on Tuesday evening, police said.
Blue jeans
The West Midlands force said it was particularly keen to trace his steps later that evening and wanted to speak to anyone who may have seen him after about 1900 GMT.
He was wearing a very dark brown leather jacket that could be mistaken for being black in colour, police said.
The care worker was also wearing a navy blue sweater with a lighter blue trim around the collar, blue jeans and black shoes.
Mr Hadley, who worked in Halesowen, was discovered shortly after 0730 GMT and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Anyone with information has been asked to contact Acocks Green police.
