A MAN has been arrested following the death of a Rochdale pensioner, who was seen in Shaw shortly before his death.

The body of Vincent Kershaw was found at his Milnrow home at about 5.10pm on Sunday, October 14.

A 56-year-old man has since been arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in police custody for questioning.

Mr Kershaw was last seen travelling by bus and taxi in Rochdale and Shaw, on his way back to his home on Willows Lane, on October 4.

His wallet and cash, believed to be as much as £3,000, are missing.
