Detectives have arrested a man in connection with an investigation into the discovery of human remains on Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol.
Following a joint operation carried out by the Metropolitan Police and Avon and Somerset Police, a 34-year-old man was arrested in the Bristol area in the early hours of Saturday, 13 July.
The man, whose image had been released by officers on July 12, was detained by Avon and Somerset armed officers at Temple Meads Station and was taken into custody, where he remains. He will be taken to London for questioning later today.
Extensive enquiries are ongoing. However, at this stage, police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.
We continue to work closely with colleagues in Avon and Somerset Police to establish the facts surrounding this incident.
Deputy Assistant Commissioner Andy Valentine said, “This is a significant development in our investigation and I would like to thank the public for their support.
“We understand the concerns of local communities in both Bristol and London and officers will remain in the Clifton and Shepherd’s Bush areas over the coming days to reassure those affected by this tragic incident.”
“Anyone with any concerns is encouraged to speak with them.”
