Detectives are appealing for information or witnesses after they arrested three men and a woman as part of an investigation into an unexplained death in Stoke-on-Trent on 20th February.
Police were called to a property on Lime Street at around 9:30pm following a report of a man in his 30s in need of emergency medical attention. Sadly despite the best efforts of paramedics, the man died a short while later.
The deceased’s next of kin have been informed and specially trained officers are providing support at this difficult time. Formal identification of the body is yet to take place.
