Extensive Search for Missing Person
Yesterday afternoon, reports of a person in the sea prompted a flurry of emergency response teams, including volunteers from the RNLI and Sussex Police, to the Brighton Palace Pier. The search operation spanned several hours and involved various teams from Newhaven, Littlehampton, and Shoreham, but the missing person remained elusive.
Mysterious Unidentified Body Found
Despite the exhaustive efforts to locate the missing individual, the search only resumed this morning, and the shocking discovery of an unidentified body was made at approximately 8:15 am on Saltdean beach. Sussex Police have since confirmed that the body has been found, but the investigation into the circumstances is still underway.
Ongoing Investigation with Limited Information
The intensity of the search operation was evident in the significant presence of emergency personnel and volunteers, including RNLI Lifeboats, HM Coastguard helicopter, coastguards, and Sussex Police officers on shore. However, the identity of the body and how it ended up in the sea remain shrouded in mystery, as Sussex Police have not yet released any further details. Despite the lack of information, the investigation is ongoing, and updates will be provided as more information is uncovered.
