Philip Greenbaum

Age: 62

Sex: male

Date: 21 Oct 1949

Place: Meanwood Road, Leeds, Yorkshire

Philip Greenbaum died three months after he was attacked by two men. However, it could not be determined whether he had died as a result of his injury or from natural causes and the jury at his inquest on Friday 21 October 1949 returned an open verdict.

He was attacked in his tailors’ shop on 6 July 1949 and died later in the Leeds Infirmary on 17 October 1949 from his injuries. Although he had apparently made a good recovery and had returned home, he was later readmitted to the hospital suffering from concussion and head injuries after he collapsed in his shop about two weeks before his death.
