Appeal for information: Identifying deceased man, Heathcote Valley

The Team from Canterbury Police

Police can now release an image of the backpack, and its contents, located with the man found deceased on Horotane Valley Road, Heathcote Valley on Friday 19 September.

We appreciate all those who have come forward with information so far and continue to follow lines of enquiry where they become available; unfortunately, the man remains unidentified.

Police are hoping that these images, paired with a description of the deceased, may be recognised by someone in the community.

The man is thought to be in his 30’s or 40’s, with a distinctive birthmark on his left forearm. When located he was wearing a black long sleeve woollen jersey, black trousers and grey tramping boots.

If you have any information that could assist us in identifying this man, please contact Police on 105 and quote file number 250919/7193.

Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.

For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.

Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.
