The funeral service for a postman found dead on the day he was due at Truro Crown Court is to take place today.

The body of keen footballer 26-year-old Darryl Webster, from Lostwithiel, was found in Duporth Woods, St Austell, in June but police say they are not treating his death as suspicious.

Mr Webster was due to appear at the crown court on the day he was found, charged with 14 offences including the theft of bank cards and fraud, all said to have been committed between January 2008 and October 2009 when he was working as a postman in St Austell.
