Police are appealing for information after a man was found dead in his car on the hard shoulder of the M40.

Warwickshire Police said the man was found at around 10.30am on Monday 22 January in a black Honda Civic between junctions 15 and 16 southbound.

The force said it is "believed to have been following a medical episode" and is not being treated as suspicious.

"We are looking to determine what happened before the car pulled up on the hard shoulder," a Warwickshire Police statement said.

"If you saw a black Honda Civic near or were travelling down the M40 Southbound in the preceding hours to 10.30am that day, particularly if you have a dashcam or any other footage that could help, contact us citing incident 109 of 22 January."
