A MAN who died at the wheel of his car in Haslemere is believed to have lost his 79-year-old mother two days earlier.

The coroner's office ruled last week that Bordon man Mark Brodrick, 56, had died from natural causes.

Paramedics from the South East Coast Ambulance Service arrived at the scene around 8pm on May 20 but Mr Brodrick was pronounced dead after efforts to revive him. It is believed he suffered a heart attack.

It is understood that his mother had died two days earlier at Bordon's Ashley House care home.
