Police have appealed for witnesses following the death of a woman who was pulled out of the River Thames in Surrey at the weekend.
Surrey Police said officers were called to reports of a person in the water near Walton Bridge, Walton-On-Thames, at 18:40 BST on Sunday.
The woman in her 80s was taken to hospital where she later died, police said.
