A 46-YEAR-OLD man, who was found dead at a home on Cooper Close in Bromsgrove, died of natural causes, an inquest heard.

A post mortem revealed that Dean Cox had severe atheromatous disease, which hardens the arteries. 

The medical cause of death was found to be ischaemic heart disease, coronary artery atheroma and idiopathic left ventricular hypertrophy.

Worcestershire Coroner's Service ruled Mr Cox's death to be the result of natural causes and the inquest was closed on June 17.
