It was very considerate of him to worry about the scooter and it's owner at such a tragic time in his life.

re rented that ...... 

???

"body of Jasper Larsson (name transcribed)  ....  Police recovered a small bag containing his passport"

 

why they offer the transcribed name when having the original name and passport on hand?

What a sad end, albeit by his own choice!

Check the hand writing.

If true, then a sad story.

  Probably didn't want a gang of muaychete wielding hoodlums chasing him into the afterlife for monies owed!

RIP..poor bugger

Another sad tale ... if he had gone home to Denmark (generally considered one of the happiest places to live) he might have been helped. RIP.
