Avon and Somerset Police have confirmed the death of a Bath Spa University student at the Newton Park campus at Newton St Loe.
Officers were called just after 6pm on Wednesday 14th November, and found the body of 18 year-old Adam Blissett, a first year Business and Management student, in his room at the university accommodation.
The cause of the death is currently being treated as unexplained and the police have referred it to the coroner for further investigation.
An email was sent out this morning by Vice-Chancellor Professor Christina Slade to all of the students at Bath Spa informing them of the death and assuring staff and students that they “will be on hand to offer any support needed in the coming days and weeks.”
A student at the university told us: “So sad and very unsettling for me as I live in the building opposite… My thoughts are with his family at this time.”
