Body found in silksworth lake



It was initially found by a woman walking her dog this morning around the lake. She thought it was a coat and then on closer inspection, it was a body. Horrible sight to encounter.

Really wonder how long it had been there. David Bennett has been missing a month, was it really there all this time? Or if recent, where could he have been missing beforehand? Little makes sense, hence why the DNA results are crucial.

Where the lad was found could be wrong. I know someone who was called to the scene this morning. He's only said what I posted above.
 
Echo website:

Only yesterday, Northumbria Police reissued an appeal for help from anyone who might have seen David.

But today David's mother Carol Watson posted the sad news on Facebook that a body has been found, which is believed to be her son.

She wrote: "Yesterday was the worst day of my life. Police have found a body and he matched my beautiful son.
