A pensioner died from ‘multiple injuries’ after falling from a Tameside motorway bridge, an inquest has ruled.
Paul Carpenter, of Ashton, died on February 1 this year. He was discovered by motorists on the hard shoulder between junctions 3 and 4 of the M67.
Today, an inquest into the 68-year-old's death in Stockport has found that the fall was the primary cause of death but stopped short of concluding he died by suicide. Senior Coroner Alison Mutch instead recorded a narrative conclusion.
