A murder investigation has been launched after the body of a man was found in a home.

He was discovered on Baldmoor Lake Road, Birmingham, on Tuesday after officers were alerted by a concerned relative, West Midlands Police said.

The 65-year-old was found inside the property at about 09:00 GMT and pronounced dead at the scene.

A 25-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder and fraud and a 51-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of fraud, the force said.

"Our enquiries revealed the man’s bank card had been used since his death," a police spokesperson said.

Neighbours were questioned and the home was thoroughly examined by forensic officers, they added.

A post-mortem examination will be carried out to find out the cause of the man's death.
