A man who was found dead at a property in Warwickshire was a "joy and a treasure", his family has said.

James Bosworth, 21, from Nottingham, was found dead at a building near a business on Rouncil Lane, Kenilworth, shortly after 18:00 GMT last Friday.

He had suffered multiple injuries, Warwickshire Police said.

Stuart Baker, 43, of Etsome Terrace in Somerton, Somerset has been charged with murder and possession of class A drugs.

In tribute to her son, Mr Bosworth's mother said: "He was a joy and a treasure who lives on in spirit and in the hearts of his family, friends, and those blessed to know him.

"He was handsome, generous, quick-witted, clever, patient and kind. A bright, beautiful, and brave soul, adventurous and noble."

He could easily bring a smile to anyone's face, even on their worst days, she added.

His father added: "He was a brilliant son, wiser than his years, a caring brother and much loved by all his family."

Mr Baker was remanded in custody during a hearing at Warwick Crown Court, ahead of a hearing scheduled at the same court on 20 January.
