Clifton Suspension Bridge manhunt: Police say bodies in suitcase belong to two men

Police have released new information about the two suitcases found with human remains inside at Bristol’s Clifton Suspension Bridge as the murder probe spread to a new part of the UK

Human remains found in two suitcases near the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol are believed to be from two adult men, according to police.

The horror discovery was made on Wednesday evening after police were called to reports of a man with a suitcase acting suspiciously on the bridge. The suspect, who remains at large, is thought to have travelled to Bristol from London earlier that day, the Metropolitan Police said.

A crime scene is in place at a location in Shepherd’s Bush, west London, and detectives from the Met are now leading the investigation. The victims have not yet been formally identified but both are believed to be adult men, with the results of one post-mortem examination "inconclusive", while a second post-mortem examination remains ongoing.
