Witnesses are being urged to come forward after a homeless man died following a fire in a motorway underpass.

The 51-year-old died after the blaze broke out under the M4 near White Hart Road, Slough on 13 May.

Thames Valley Police said his death was not currently being treated as murder, but was being investigated as "unexplained" as the circumstances were unclear.

The force said it wanted to hear from anyone with information.

Det Con Leiagh Ball, of Slough CID, said: "We would like to speak to anyone who was in the area near the underpass on the afternoon of 13 May as you may have vital information to help our enquiries.

"Even though you may not have seen anything that was out of the ordinary, it may still assist in our investigation, so please get in contact."
