Man sought over body found in bin | |
(about 6 hours later) | |
Detectives are trying to trace a 33-year-old man after a woman's body was found in a wheelie bin in Surrey. | |
Police were called to Hamilton Avenue, Cobham, at 1520 BST on Saturday after a foot was seen sticking out of the green bin in front of the house. | |
The body of a white woman, believed to be in her 30s, was discovered surrounded by rubbish. | |
Police are trying to trace Peter Wallner, who moved out of the house about three weeks ago. | |
A Surrey Police spokesman said he "may be able to provide useful information for the investigation". | |
He is described as a heavy-built white man with broad shoulders, about 6ft (1.8m) tall, with slightly receding brown cropped hair and brown eyes. | |
Neighbours described the area as a quiet, safe place | |
House-to-house inquiries and a full search of the area are being carried out. | |
A post-mortem examination is being carried out at the Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford. | |
Residents in the area said they were shocked by the discovery. | |
One woman told BBC News: "It's a very quiet place, it's where you bring up your family. | |
"I've lived here for 30-odd years and it's the first thing like this that's happened." | |
She added: "It's quite scary. You think of it as being a safe place, but when you hear of a body being found it's shocking." |
