Human bones found in Walton Highway last month belonged to man in 30s, police confirm

Police have revealed that human bones found in a village belonged to a man in his 30s.

Officers were called to Lynn Road in Walton Highway on Sunday, May 18, following reports that partial human remains had been found by a member of the public.

The deceased man’s family have now been located and are receiving support.

A police spokesperson told the Lynn News that they will not be issuing any further details, although a file is being prepared for the coroner.

The death is currently being treated as unexplained, but is not thought to be suspicious.

Earlier this month, officers established the identity of the remains.

It was confirmed that they do not belong to either Terry McSpadden, who disappeared from Elm in 2007, or Maris Ile, who went missing from Lynn in November last year and is the subject of a no-body murder investigation.
