The devastated family of a father-of-two who was crushed to death under heavy machinery in London are desperately searching for answers as to how the tragedy unfolded.
Steve Jeffrey, from Cliffe in Kent, had commuted to his Fleet Place office in central London as usual on April 20 before the horror accident led to his sudden death at 51.
It's understood he became trapped under machinery at the office but his family are still unsure as to what triggered the tragic chain of events.
The weekend before his death, Mr Jeffrey had taken his son Kai to play for his Ebbsfleet United Under-19s football team as he always did.
He then spent time with his friend Ben Smoker and their families, including his partner Andrea Moore and his daughter Amy.

Mr Smoker described his friend as 'always smiling, always laughing'.
Speaking to The Mirror about his 'bubbly' friend, Mr Smoker said: 'He was always checking on people, if he knew something was going on in your life he would always be the first person to ask you about it.'
He added: 'His bubbly kind-hearted nature and caring personality touched so many. He would do anything for anyone and would put them unselfishly before his own needs.'
