A 65-year-old man has been arrested after the body of a woman was discovered hidden in the attic of a bungalow.

Police were alerted after a member of the public made the grim find at the property on Ransom Road, Mapperley, Nottingham, just after 4pm on Friday (16/8).

A post-mortem found the woman died of natural causes and work to identify the victim is still ongoing, says Nottinghamshire Police.

Following the discovery in the loft, a man fled the address but was arrested in the early hours of Saturday (17/8) in another area of Nottingham.
