Police are investigating the unexplained death of a man who was found outside an apartment block with injuries "consistent with a fall from height". Police were called to George Street in Hockley shortly before 10pm on Monday, August 1.
The force say the man received medical attention at the scene but died later in hospital. His injuries are consistent with a fall from height, however there is no evidence to suggest his death was suspicious.
Detective Sergeant James Hirst, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "Our thoughts are with this man’s family and friends at this extremely difficult time. We are currently treating his death as unexplained but the injuries he sustained were consistent with a fall from height.
