The death of a rough sleeper just days before Christmas has left people shocked and saddened that such tragedies are still happening on the streets of our city.
The man was discovered in the Northern Quarter early on Wednesday morning. Emergency services raced to the scene at the junction of Copperas Street and William Fairburn Way shortly before 7am, but attempts to save the man were unsuccessful.
The area was taped off whilst police carried out enquiries with a private ambulance later seen arriving at the scene.
