Detectives are investigating after a man in his 60s was found dead at his home.

Police and paramedics were called to a house in Aylesbury Avenue, Langney, Eastbourne, just before 10am yesterday following a call from a concerned colleague.

The body of a man in his 60s was discovered at the address.

The area was cordoned off as a precautionary measure while officers conducted their investigation.

A post-mortem examination to establish the cause of death took place this afternoon.

A Sussex Police spokesman said it was too early to say if the death was suspicious or not.
