A patient has been found dead in a catering oven at a hospital.

Northamptonshire Police said officers were called to the “sudden death” of the man at Kettering General Hospital last Friday.

The death is not being treated as suspicious.

The force added in a statement: “Our thoughts are with the man’s family and friends at this time.”

University Hospitals of Northamptonshire NHS Group’s Chief Nurse, Julie Hogg, said: “We are working with Northamptonshire Police so that they can complete a report for the coroner into the circumstances of this tragic incident.

“Our thoughts are with the man’s family and loved ones. We will not be commenting further at this time.”
