williamsA math teacher was found dead at a waste recycling site in Newhaven in the UK. It is believed that he crawled into a dumpster to sleep after a heavy night of drinking with friends.

The body of Scott Williams, a 35-year-old math teacher and rugby coach, was found one hour after friends reported him missing. At this stage, police are treating his death as unexplained rather than suspicious.

It is believed that he was inadvertently emptied into a garbage truck with the contents of the dumpster and then crushed to death by the trash compactor.
