The death of a man who was found in a park lake has been ruled 'non-suspicious' but the cause of death remains a mystery.
The man's body was pulled from the lake in Central Park, Wallasey after it was discovered around 6.30am on Monday.
Police released a description of the man to help find out his name and now police have identified the man in his 50s but are still searching for his next of kin.
A post-mortem has been carried out but police can't confirm the cause of death until toxicology reports have been done.
