THE girlfriend of a Stourport man found him hanged in the home that they were planning to move into, an inquest has heard.

Dennis Biggs, aged 28, of Dorsett Road, was decorating the property in Sutton Road, Kidderminster.

On Thursday, October 14, his girlfriend went to see him at their house but she could not get in so she waved down a passing police car.

On entry they found Mr Biggs hanging from the loft spacing.

Coroner Victor Round said Mr Biggs had written things on the walls, which were in the nature of a suicide note. The inquest was adjourned to a date to be fixed.
