Grosvenor Centre death: Appeal to identify man who died 13 years ago

The unidentified man collapsed at the shopping centre in Northampton in November 2010

An appeal has been launched to identify a man 13 years after his death.

He collapsed in the Grosvenor Centre in Northampton on 19 November 2010 and died without being identified.

The charity Locate International is trying to trace his next of kin and said even a small amount of information could help.

The man had grey hair, a full beard and lacked most of his teeth. He was wearing jeans, a dark jacket and a red woolly hat when he died.

The charity said he also had one mole above the corner of his right eye and another mole on his right cheek.

The man was captured walking on CCTV footage

There were two items found in his possession which might hold the key to his identity.

Locate International investigator Freya Couzens said: "Whilst there's been some discussion about whether he had a residence or was sleeping rough, what is quite interesting is that he did have two keys, one of which was a Yale key which would generally be known as a house key."

The man also had a pair of silver-rimmed glasses and a packet of Pall Mall cigarettes.

Ms Couzens said: "You often hear the phrase 'kept himself to himself', but as much as that might be the case for someone, there is usually one person who used to work with him, or has spoken to him, knows some small detail.

"That could be what leads us to find his family or friends."

The charity had received some information suggesting he was living behind the Cock Hotel in Kingsthorpe and may have been called "Terrance".
