Thames Valley Police say following a coroners inquest, they have dropped a murder probe into the death of a man in Oxfordshire.

Tyron Jonsyn, who was 28-years-old, died at a property in Lock Court, Brize Norton, on Monday 16 January 2023.

A murder investigation was then launched, and two men, aged 46 and 30, from Carterton and Milton Keynes respectively, were arrested on suspicion of murder.

Following a lengthy and intensive investigation, advice was sought from the Crown Prosecution Service, and there was insufficient evidence to bring about any charges in relation to Tyron’s death.

Police say therefore, the two men arrested have been released with no further action to be taken.

A narrative verdict was reached at Oxford Coroner’s Court last Monday, 27 January, in which the cause of Tyron’s death was unascertained.

Senior investigating officer Detective Inspector Alice Broad, of Thames Valley Police’s Major Crime Unit, said: “Following Tyron’s tragic death, we launched a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding this.

“The investigation was long and protracted, and I would like to pay tribute to Tyron’s family for the patience and dignity that they have shown throughout.

“We sought advice from the CPS, who ascertained that there was insufficient evidence to support a murder charge.

“The conclusion from the inquest was that the cause of Tyron’s death was unascertained.”

“As such, our investigation has been filed, pending any further future information coming to light.

“I know that Tyron’s loved ones will struggle to come to terms with his untimely passing, and not having the knowledge of how he died. On behalf of all of us at Thames Valley Police, my thoughts remain with them as they look to move on with their lives.”
