AN inquest has been told a man found dead in Rowley Regis was 20-year-old Craig Rushton.
Mr Rushton was found in a pool of blood on George Avenue on November 18 with a single stab wound to his neck.
The death of the warehouse worker from Brittania Road is not being treated as suspicious.
The inquest, which was opened and adjourned, heard a large kitchen knife was found near the body and it appeared the wound was self-inflicted.
Black Country coroner Zafar Siddique adjourned the hearing until January.
