‘Multiple dead bodies found in woods' as cops launch urgent probe to work out ‘how many there are'
MULTIPLE bodies have been discovered in a woods following a police investigation into a missing man. The shocking find was made after officers discovered the body of Daniel Coleman the woodlands near Sticker, in Cornwall. 1 Devon and Cornwall Police are continuing to scour the woods with the help of officers from across the UK. Police and crime commissioner Alison Hernandez told a panel today that number of "dead bodies" have been discovered. Ms Hernandez said: "Some of the elements of that operation I can't speak about but some of the things are very obvious. "As you know there is a large crime scene that has been identified in Cornwall that is requiring a lot of effort to even scene guard the area. "The level of expertise, some of the mutual aid we've brought in, is expertise in specific types of investigations that we didn't have. "The National Crime Agency is supporting the organisation at the moment. "I want to thank all the other forces that are coming in at a very busy time for themselves to offer mutual aid. "It's largely investigative mutual aid that we've brought in. "Until some of those elements have been established of exactly what we're dealing with there, it will be made public at that time. "I know there's been some information in the media. We've got a huge forensic tent down there. "Lots of forensics officers, obviously we've found dead bodies in that wood. "We're just trying to establish how many there may be at this point in time and whether we are aware of who they are or what might have happened to them. "So we also don't know how long they may have been there, some of them." is your go-to destination for the best celebrity news, real-life stories, jaw-dropping pictures and must-see video.

23yo Aussie found dead in Thailand
A young Australian man has been found dead in a Thai hotel room reportedly one day before he was set to return home. According to local outlet 'Phuket News', police found the 23-year-old man in his hotel bed in Tambon Thepkrasatths wearing a black T-shirt and still holding his mobile phone. Phuket News reported there were no signs of a disturbance, no evidence of a break-in, and no visible injuries indicating foul play, although police did observe that his elbow and wrist had been bandaged. Friends told authorities these injuries were the result of a recent motorbike accident. An investigation officer with the local station received a call at around 10am from a nurse at Thalang Hospital, reporting the death of the 23-year-old. Officers later identified the man and confirmed that he had checked into the hotel on Sunday July 20 and was scheduled to check out on July 24. Police said the Australian Consulate in Phuket had been notified and a forensic doctor attended to examine the scene. The man's body was taken to Vachira Phuket Hospital for a post-mortem examination to determine the cause of death. Police said they were continuing their investigation. The Phuket News is withholding the man's name pending confirmation that his next of kin have been notified. Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said they were unable to comment until those further details were released.
