A second man has been arrested on suspicion of murder as part of an ongoing investigation in Bradford.

Detectives are now linking the murder investigation to missing Denholme man Tyron Charles, 29.

Officers said they have not discovered a body, but evidence recovered suggests Mr Charles has come to "serious harm".

He was last seen on the afternoon of Wednesday, September 6, and reported missing by his family.

Specialist teams, including the Police Underwater Search and Marine Unit, have been searching a number of locations in the Denholme area, including Doe Park Water Activities Park, as part of the inquiry.
