Body of missing 25-year-old found on industrial estate after ‘extensive’ search
A BODY has been found on an industrial estate in the search for a 25-year-old man who has been missing for six weeks.
Bradley Porter was last seen leaving a property in Swindon, Wilts, in the early hours of August 6.

“While formal identification has not yet taken place, Bradley’s family have been updated of the latest development. Our thoughts are with them at this difficult time.”
Assistant Chief Constable Deb Smith said: “Our thoughts are with Bradley’s family. We have deployed specially trained officers to support them.
“I would like to thank everybody who has provided us with information since Bradley was reported missing to us.”
A post mortem examination will be held.
Police have not revealed if the death is being treated as suspicious.
