Man’s body found in clothes recycling bin by member of public in Scarborough

Police are not treating the death of a man whose body was found in a clothes recycling bin as suspicious.

The grim discovery in Scalby, Scarborough, was made by a member of the public early on Friday, who raised the alarm.

The victim’s family have been informed and are being supported by officers, North Yorkshire Police said.

A cordon at the scene has now been removed.

The force said in a statement: “There are no suspicious circumstances around the man’s death and a file has been passed to the coroner.

“The man’s family have been made aware and are being supported by officers.”
