Opening the inquest this afternoon, senior coroner for Oxfordshire Darren Salter noted that Mr Carreno had been a single man, living in Wilkins Road, Oxford, and working as a warehouse operator when he died. He was born in July 1991 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.

A full inquest will take place on February 24.

Thames Valley Police is treating Mr Carreno’s death as unexplained but not suspicious. Officers released a CCTV image of a man they believe may have seen him before he died.

Det Con Dan Hayward said: “I’d also appeal to anyone who has any information they think may be useful to please get in touch using the methods above.”
