Our thoughts are with Alices family at this sad time. Our community continues to show how much it cares. Please see the latest update from Find Alice Gross Facebook group admins. IMPORTANT UPDATE FROM THE POLICE. Officers investigating the murder of Alice Gross have today, Saturday, 4 October found a body in Boston Manor Park. Although no formal identification has been made, early indications suggest the body may be that of Arnis Zalkalns. The badly decomposed body was found by officers in dense woodland at 14:00hrs as part of their ongoing search. Due to the nature of the surrounding area specialist resources will be required to assist with the recovery of the body which will not take place until tomorrow. Boston Manor Park is cordoned off whilst officers conduct a thorough search to ensure that all evidential opportunities are secured. This will take some time given the nature of the scene. Alices family have been informed of todays developments. Although Arnis Zalkalns had been identified as a suspect in the Alice Gross murder investigation, enquiries continue to establish the full circumstances surrounding this crime. Officers are still searching for evidence, and once again appeal to the public for any information that could assist them. We again thank the public and media for helping us with this ongoing investigation. In particular we are grateful for the support of the local community in Ealing. Anyone with any information is asked to contact us on 0208 358 0100. FROM ADMINS: We will continue to post updates on this page as soon as we can. Please: you are asked not to speculate on here about any aspect of the Alice Gross murder investigation, including the suspect, as it could be prejudicial to the handling of the enquiry, hurtful to Alices family, or both. Thank you. #AliceGross #OurCommunityCares
