The body of a missing 69-year-old man has been found in the North Lincolnshire town of Barton upon Humber.
Humberside Police released an appeal earlier this week to help find John Smith, who had been missing since 5.30pm on Wednesday, July 28.
Sadly, officers were called to reports of a body found near to Far Ings Road on Thursday, July 29. The body has since been identified as that of John Smith. Police said his death is not being treated as suspicious.
Humberside Police said: “John’s family have been informed and specialist officers are continuing to support them.
“Our thoughts remain with them at this extremely difficult time. His death is not being treated as suspicious.”
Police are investigating the death of a 74-year-old man who is believed to have been struck by a car in Gainsborough late on Friday night.
One of Lincolnshire Police’s officers was flagged down by a motorist on Middlefield Lane to report a man seriously injured in the road at around 11.15pm on July 30.
Paramedics treated him at the scene but, despite their best efforts, the man was pronounced dead a short time later. Police said his next of kin have been informed and are being assisted by specially trained officers.
Police added that their enquiries suggest that a Renault Clio, dating from 2006 onwards, may have been involved.
The force are urging anyone who was either driving a Renault Clio on Friday night, or who saw a vehicle matching the description in the area, to contact them.
Anyone who has information or who saw the incident, or has dashcam footage, should contact police on 101 or via email at [email protected] quoting incident number 523 of July 30.
