Prolific begging offender found dead in city

ONE of Plymouth’s most notorious – and in many ways tragic – individuals has been found dead in a property in the city.

Locals noted the recent passing of Anthony Fox on a number of social media websites, and commenters revealed very divided recollections about the one-legged man – who accrued nearly 200 offences to his name.

Fox was known for his numerous court appearances, and went about Plymouth on crutches.

A spokesperson for Devon and Cornwall Police said: “Police were called by the ambulance service at around 9.30pm on Sunday 2 June to a property in Stoke Road, Plymouth, following a report of concern for the welfare of a man.

“The man, aged in his 60s, was confirmed deceased at the scene. His next of kin have been informed. The death is not being treated as suspicious at this time and a file will be prepared for the coroner.”
