Liam Hill's death prompts murder inquiry at Rhyl

A murder inquiry has been launched following the death of a man in Rhyl.

The body of Liam Hill, 44, was found at his flat on Friday 8 January and police want help to trace his movements as he was last seen two days earlier.

North Wales Police said a post-mortem examination had raised significant concerns about the cause of his death which has not been revealed.

Mr Hill's mother Catherine said his death had "left an enormous gap that cannot be filled".

She added: "Liam was the most loving son you could wish to have. He loved spending time with all his family. He will always be in our hearts."

In a public appeal, Supt Pierce said: "Can you help us and his distraught family please get to the bottom of what happened to Liam and how he died?"
