A man who was found dead at a house in Hereford was "kind, generous and funny", his family said.

Jamie Gawler, 54, was discovered by West Mercia Police officers at a home in Brierley Court at 15:40 GMT on Saturday.

His family said they were "devastated" by the passing of their "very much-loved son, brother, uncle and friend" and added he was a "true gentleman".

A 39-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder in Wales on Saturday after Mr Gawler's death and remained in custody, the force said.
