Tributes have been paid to a 17-year-old boy whose body was found more than four months after he went missing. Police carried out widespread searches for 'loving' teen Freddy who disappeared after leaving his family farm in September last year.
But his family have now been told a member of the public found human remains between Steart Marshes and Stolford near Bridgwater on Monday. Avon and Somerset Police said formal identification has yet to take place, but detectives searching for Freddy believe they are his.
His death is being treated as unexplained but is not thought to be suspicious. Freddy was last seen at his home in Stolford, Somerset, on 20 September.
