AN inquest into the death of a father has been relisted for January next year.

Father Ambrose Ball disappeared after his car was involved in a crash after a night out on January 24.

His car was found badly damaged on the border of Walthamstow and Tottenham and his body was discovered in the River Lea at New Cut in April.

A post mortem to establish the cause of death was inconclusive.

An initial inquest was opened and adjourned at Barnet Coroner’s Court on April 30, which concluded that Mr Ball did not die of natural causes.

The inquest was due to be held today, Monday, August 24, but has now been relisted for January 2016.
