Mother and baby: Police 'not treating deaths as suspicious'

Police searching for a mother and her newborn daughter who disappeared from a hospital in Bristol say they have now found the body of a baby at Avon Gorge.

A woman's body found there on Wednesday evening has been identified as that of Charlotte Bevan, 30; the other is thought to be that of her daughter, Zaani Tiana.

Police say they are not treating the deaths as suspicious.

Detective Chief Inspector Simon Crisp from Avon and Somerset Police says the search had continued through the night.
