A radio DJ died yesterday (Thursday) after a confrontation with burglars at his home.
Tushar Makwana, a regular on 100.7 Heart in the West Midlands, was discovered lying outside his property in Castle Bromwich, Birmingham, in the early hours of Monday.
A statement from the station said that Makwana's life support machine was switched off on Thursday.
Heart managing director Paul Fairburn said: "His family are in our thoughts constantly. Tushar was one of those great people - a genuinely nice person. He always worked doubly hard on all our charity fund-raisers and came forward with ideas of his own to do even more for charity, because he wanted to - that's the kind of person he was.
"In 2002, he won a Silver award at the Radio 'Oscars', the Sony Radio Academy Awards, for his short-form series about the 25th anniversary of UB40, proving that, as well as being a genuinely nice guy, he was a talented broadcaster."
Police believe that he may have been run over by the burglars as they left the scene and are appealing for anyone with informatiion to come forward.
