Body found in search for Noah Woods

Police dive teams this afternoon have sadly recovered the body of a child from Decoy Pond in Brantham (Wednesday 16 September).

Formal identification has yet to take place but the family of Noah Woods have been informed of this development. The discovery of the body is currently being treated as not suspicious but unexplained. The coroner will be informed of this development.

Officers have carried out multiple enquiries, including the deployment of specialist search officers and dog units and received support from various agencies with around 1300 members of the public also supporting the search.

Superintendent Tom Pearse said: “First and foremost our thoughts are with Noah’s family and all who knew him.

“Since Noah was reported as missing vast number of our officers and staff have been deployed in numerous functions in the search for Noah and support for his family. We’ve been supported by Norfolk Constabulary, the Metropolitan Police, British Transport Police, the National Police Air Service, Suffolk HART, SULSAR, Environment Agency, HM Coastguard, Fire and Rescue Service and the ambulance service. We have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of public support, people putting on their boots and helping us search.

“As a parent myself, I completely understand why people would want to help and such a response is one that typifies the strong sense of community and the heart-warming nature of Suffolk people that make the county such a special place. I am sure you appreciate the family now need time, space and privacy and I thank you for your understanding in this.”

This is very close to our hearts as this is one of our amazing little butterflies that we care for daily, Paisley has been nothing but amazing, strong and a true fighter we are so pleased to now see her up and about and getting back to her normal cheeky, loving, chatterbox sassy self.
We were devastated to hear the news and all we could do was offer Paisley and her beautiful family support and so glad she is now on the road to recovery.

Paisley and her family have been with us since the day we opened and she is 1 out of the 3 we have cared for please donate what you can to raise funds for the two amazing hospitals and staff that saved her life. 🦋💜🦋💜🦋

As parents, there are moments in life that change you forever. … Lauren Cant needs your support for Help Us Give Back to the Heroes Who Saved Our Paisley-Rose
