Suspect appears in court charged with murder after death of 'friendly' Padiham man
Officers from Lancashire Constabulary were called to a property in Coronation Avenue at 10.33am on November 25 last year after paramedics pronounced Stephen Macro dead. A Home Office post mortem concluded that the 57-year-old died as a result of multiple abdominal and scalp injuries.
A 57-year-old man was arrested at the scene on suspicion of murder and on Friday, following consultation from the Crown Prosecution Service, Wayne Dawson, of Burnley Road, Padiham, was charged with murder. He was remanded into custody to appear before Lancashire magistrates over the weekend.Detective Chief Inspector Allen Davies, of the Force Major Investigation Team, said: “Although we have now charged a man, our investigation into Stephen’s death continue.
“Stephen’s family have been kept updated with the latest developments and my thoughts very much remain with them.” Following Stephen’s death, his family said in a tribute: “He was very well known, always out walking Murphy, his dog. Stephen was always talkative and friendly. He was very popular.” Anyone with information which could assist our investigation should call police on 101, quoting log 410 of November 25, 2021.
