A verdict of accidental death has been recorded after a 74-year-old man was found dead with his head stuck in a manhole, having been there for several days.
William Edward Lea was found head first down the manhole on April 18 at his home in Cartmel, Cumbria.
Recording a verdict of accidental death, coroner Ian Smith said the cause was asphyxia. He added that Mr Lea had either become trapped whilst examining the drain or had tripped and fallen into it while the cover was off.
WTF? He was there for SEVERAL DAYS!?
