Manhunt in Bristol

Two suitcases with human remains found

Police officers in the English city of Bristol have discovered two suitcases with gruesome contents. "Sadly, we believe the suitcases contain human remains," said the investigators. The manhunt is in full swing.

Police were called to the well-known suspension bridge in Bristol at around midnight on Wednesday because a man was reported to have been handling a suitcase there in a conspicuous manner. When officers arrived ten minutes later, the man had disappeared and left the luggage behind.

Theman took a cab to the bridge
The second suitcase was then discovered nearby. Police are now searching for the man who, according to initial investigations, had taken a cab to the Clifton Suspension Bridge.

The suspect is described by the police as dark-skinned and bearded. He was wearing a black Adidas baseball cap, black jeans, a black jacket, white sneakers and was carrying a black backpack (see mugshots below).

Manhunt underway
Acting Commander, Vicks Hayward-Melen: "This is a very disturbing incident and I am aware of the concern it is causing in our communities. Our immediate priority is to locate the man and inform the victims' families.

The victims have not yet been identified, but the contents of the suitcase are believed to be the remains of two adult males. London police took over the case after some indications that the wanted man had previously traveled to Bristol from the British capital.
