Police have confirmed the death of a man aged in his 50s in Norwich is not being treated as suspicious.

Officers were called at about 2.20am on Thursday (August 23) following reports a body had been found in an alleyway off King Street leading to Murrells Court.

The area was sealed off while initial enquiries were carried out.

The cordon has since been lifted and detectives can confirm there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding the man's death.

A forensics tent was put up following the discovery of the man's body and two police officers stood guard outside the entrance to the area while officers carried out their enquiries.

A file will be prepared for Her Majesty's Coroner in due course.
