In case of Gerard Colgan it is more and more mysterious. Pictures, always just as gloomy.
The 32-year-old man was reported missing on Friday after his family went missing for about a week. Sunday afternoon the worst was confirmed: they found her body on the roof of her neighbor’s three-story house.
The disturbing thing about the death of this young Englishman from West Yorkshire in Leeds is that police have found no “suspicious circumstances” in his case. It is unknown how he got to the roof (although it is believed that he climbed through a window), why or how he died.
The body was found by a neighbor Colgan. He was, as can be seen in the photographs, under a yellow blanket.
“We don’t know how long it was on my roof. I did not see itThe man who found him told the Daily Mail.
Colgan was much loved by his family. His brothers were desperately looking for him through social networks.
He also got along very well with his neighbors. One of them who spoke to the Daily Mail considered him “a good guy”. “It’s sad to think he may have been alone there for a few days while his family and his friends hoped for him to arrive safe and sound,” she said.
Gerard’s body was lowered from the high ceiling by firefighters. They loaded it onto a platform with a special ladder for this type of case. Apparently Gerard was already dead when he was found at 3:30 pm.
“There were no suspicious circumstances and the coroner’s office was informed,” confirmed a West Yorkshire spokesperson.
A body in golf
In 2018, a similar, albeit very strange, situation occurred at a golf course in Lincolnshire, also in the UK.
In what was considered an extraordinary chance discovery, During maintenance work on a golf course lake, a “rare” wooden sarcophagus from the Bronze Age was discovered containing the remains of a man and a perfectly preserved ax..
The discovery of the coffin and its contents led to a £ 70,000 (nearly $ 100,000) grant-funded rescue mission led by experts from the University of Sheffield’s Department of Archeology.
The coffin, three meters long and one meter wide, was specially protected to prevent the delicate structure from crumbling after exposure to the sun and air. All the work, which ended in June of this year, lasted three years, and at times had to be interrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic.
