An ambulance service has apologised after claims a body was left lying next to dustbins overnight at a station.
The alleged incident involved the East of England Ambulance Service (EEAST) in Ely, Cambridgeshire, last month.
Chief executive Anthony Marsh said the trust was "very sorry for what happened" and had started a "thorough investigation".
Although the service apologised, it refused to confirm the claims or say exactly what it was apologising for.
'Fairly disgraceful'However, Dr Marsh said the ambulance service was "working with the family and everyone who responded to the patient".
An EEAST spokesman confirmed the investigation involved "the transportation of a deceased patient", but said he could not comment further as inquiries were ongoing.
Sir Graham Bright, the police and crime commissioner for Cambridgeshire said the incident "sounds a fairly disgraceful thing to have happened".
"Obviously it's got to be investigated and whoever is responsible for that has got to be held to account." he said.
The claims were published in the Wisbech Standard after a "whistleblower" approached the newspaper.
