A dead body was discovered in a Biggleswade field on Saturday, police have confirmed this morning.
The body was found by a dog walker in a field off Baden Powell Way in the King’s Reach area at about 9.20am.
Police said the death is not being treated as suspicious and will be passed to the coroner in due course.
A force spokewoman said: “Formal identification will take place following a post-mortem.
“Members of the public and media are asked to refrain from speculating as to the identity of the deceased as this can cause unnecessary distress and anxiety to friends and family of anyone discussed in relation to this incident.”
