Body found set on fire in Northolt park
The discovery of a man's body on fire in a west London park is being treated as suspicious, police have said.
Firefighters were called to Belvue Park in Northolt, Ealing, at about 04:20 BST where they found the man.
The force said the victim's identity had not been confirmed, but his death was being treated as suspicious.
Senior investigating officer, Det Ch Insp Claire Hine, said the priority was to identify the person involved so their family can be told.
She said officers were carrying out house-to-house inquiries and reviewing CCTV to build a timeline of who was in the area at the time of the fire.
She added: "This is a complex and fast-moving investigation and we are working to piece together the events that resulted in this person losing their life."
Ch Supt Sean Wilson, responsible for local policing in Ealing, said: "There is no information at this time to suggest there is any wider risk as a result of this incident and I would ask the public to avoid speculating about the circumstances while our investigation takes place."
