THE body of a middle-aged man has this morning (Tuesday, October 25) been found on a Somerset trading estate.
The discovery was made at Lynx West Trading Estate, in Yeovil.
Police say formal identification will be carried out.
But officers believe the man to be Alan, aged 50, who was reported missing last Monday evening (October 17).
An Avon and Somerset Police spokesperson said: "Our thoughts are with his family, who we continue to keep updated.
"We do not believe the circumstances of the death are suspicious.
"We’ll prepare a file for the coroner."
Police had issued two appeals to the public expressing concerns for Alan who was in need of medical treatment.
