In a statement, police said:  At approximately 11.30am today North Wales Police were called to a report that the body of a man had been found at an address in Connah s Quay.  The man has been formally identified as ... Carl Sargeant. North Wales Police are not treating his death as suspicious.  Welsh First Minister Carwyn Jones said in a statement:  Carl was a friend as well as a colleague and I am shocked and deeply saddened by his death.
