The riddle of Bristol - Police discover suitcase with body parts and seek suspect
In the English city of Bristol, two suitcases with human remains have been found, and the police are continuing their search for a suspect. In the meantime, a 36-year-old man was arrested in connection with the incident but was later released, according to a statement from the Metropolitan Police in the evening.
It wasn't the suspect the investigators had been looking for since Thursday, as they had publicly appealed for information about. The wanted man is a 24-year-old, whose image had previously been made public.
During a search of a London residence, the Police reportedly found further human remains, which are believed to be connected to the findings in Bristol.
British Police Investigate in Bristol and London
The criminal case is a mystery. The police were called to Bristol's famous Clifton Suspension Bridge in the early hours of Thursday morning. Witnesses reportedly saw a man behaving suspiciously with a suitcase.
When the police arrived ten minutes later, the man had disappeared, leaving behind the suitcase. The second piece of luggage was then discovered nearby. Preliminary investigations suggest that the suitcases contained the remains of two adult men, and their identities are still unknown.
The police are currently looking for a man who is believed to have traveled from London to Bristol and then taken a taxi to the Clifton Suspension Bridge. The bridge is a landmark of the city. The police are also investigating in London's British capital.
The body parts found in the suitcases at Bristol's Clifton Suspension Bridge have led the police to conduct a search in a London residence, potentially connecting the two crime scenes. In their investigation, the authorities are focusing on a man who supposedly traveled from London to Bristol and left the suspicious luggage at the bridge.
