Ex-army dad, 26, who worked as HGV driver found dead in back of lorry

Am "outgoing" British Army veteran was found dead in the back of his lorry, an inquest has heard. Drew Howe, 26, was discovered at a lay-by on the A18 in Lincolnshire on October 19 last year.

Medical professionals rushed to the scene as the dad, from Stockport, had been found, but he could not be saved. An inquest into his passing has now concluded he took his own life.

The coroner's report on his death will include a letter to a mental health trust to raise about patients' experiences, after Mr Howe was "passed from pillar to post" trying to get help, reports the Manchester Evening News.
