Two bodies found at beauty spot | |
(about 2 hours later) | |
Police are investigating two deaths which happened hours apart at a remote beauty spot in East Yorkshire. | |
Police arrested a 25-year-old man on suspicion of murder after he led officers to a man's body on Bempton Cliffs, Flamborough at 0410 GMT. | |
The night before a woman in her 50s from Bridlington, was found dead after she fell 300ft (91m) from the cliffs. | |
Police said the two deaths are unconnected. Post-mortem examinations are expected to be carried out later. | |
Woman's death | |
A police spokesman said the death of the man was being treated as suspicious but it was too early to identify the victim. | |
It is believed the suspect, who called police to alert them to the body, is related to the dead man from Derbyshire. | |
Hours earlier Humber coastguards discovered the woman's body lying at the bottom of the same cliff. | |
Watch manager Mike Purlett said: "We received a call from a man fishing off the platform that he had been a person climbing over the fence at the top of the cliffs. | |
"When he looked back, that person wasn't there." | |
Detectives said they are not treating the woman's death as suspicious. |
