Detectives investigating the death of a man in Barnsley last week are now
preparing a file for the Coroner as the circumstances of the incident have
been comprehensively investigated.
At around 10.15pm on Thursday 28 June, Emergency Services were called to
Braithwaite Street in Mapplewell after receiving reports that a man had
suffered suspected stab wounds.
He was taken to hospital where he was pronounced dead shortly afterwards. A
post-mortem examination concluded the cause of death was a single stab wound
to the chest.
Detective Chief Inspector Steve Whittaker said: “Following the post-mortem
examination and detailed enquiries carried out as part of the investigation,
we are now confident there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding the
death of Mr William Repton.
“The 31-year-old woman initially arrested at the time on suspicion of murder
in connection to his death, has been released with no further action to be
taken.
“Our priority in any incident is to determine exactly what happened as
quickly as possible, by gathering information to ascertain the specific
circumstances and establishing all the facts.
“A file is now being prepared for the Coroner and we are not looking for
anyone else in connection to Mr Repton’s death.”

- Be Aware Of The Coronavirus Pandemic – It’s very real!
- wathupondearne Latest news in Yorkshire: Published March 23, 2019 08:47:49 AM A report which has agreed to allocate £250,000 from the Berneslai Homes surplus to support work on an affordable warmth programme for private sector housing over the next three years has been approved. Launching in March, at least 106 households will benefit from the overall programme, giving an average spend per property of £2,358. External funding of around £575,000 is also expected to be brought in, allowing hundreds more households to benefit. All energy efficiency works will be delivered through the existing Better Homes Barnsley framework and the new Warm Homes and Hospital Discharge team will help to assess need and eligibility for these schemes. The Barnsley energy tariff, the local energy supply offer provided by Great North Energy, will also be available to the residents who benefit from this programme, offering further potential for them to save money and be able to heat their homes to a comfortable level. The programme will be fully evaluated so that further funding can be secured to make it sustainable in the long-term. It will rely on referrals from health professionals and front-line council workers, although residents can self-refer. Councillor Roy Miller, Cabinet Spokesperson for Place, said: “There are currently around 11,500 households in fuel poverty in Barnsley and we also have above average rates of excess winter deaths. “This funding will allow the council to take a more holistic approach to tackling cold homes by joining up with other services to provide heating systems and insulation to the most vulnerable residents living in private sector housing.” Paul Hayes, Chair of Berneslai Homes Board, added: “Last year the Berneslai Homes Board agreed to spend some of its company surplus to support projects aimed at economic regeneration and the health and wellbeing of people in Barnsley. This is the first of those projects aimed at reducing fuel poverty. “We want all residents in Barnsley to have a home that is warm and safe to live in.” This news is linked to Town Spirit. We want to work better together. If everyone in Barnsley does just one thing, together we can make our borough a more welcoming place where people want to live, work and visit.
