Schoolgirl murder suspect found hanged

A body thought to be that of Latvian builder Arnis Zalkalns — the prime suspect in the murder of schoolgirl Alice Gross — has been removed from a park, police said.

Alice, 14, from Hanwell, west London, went missing in August and her body was recovered from the River Brent in west London on Tuesday.

Police believe a badly decomposed body found yesterday in dense woodland in Boston Manor Park, west London, is that of Zalkalns.
