Feltham: Three men arrested after teenager's body found in park

Tyler Donnelly's body was found in a park in west London

Three men have been arrested on suspicion of murder after the body of a 19-year-old man was found by joggers in a park in west London.

Tyler Donnelly, who had been stabbed and assaulted, was found dead in Hanworth Park, Feltham, at about 07:40 GMT on Thursday.

Men aged 21, 27 and 32 were arrested at different locations in London.

Met Police officers are asking people to remember if they saw Mr Donnelly on Elmwood Avenue the night he died.

Det Ch Insp Brian Howie, leading the investigation, said: "Tyler left his home around 21:10 on Wednesday evening and rode his bike along Elmwood Avenue and at some stage entered the park. He never returned home.

A crime scene at Hanworth Park has now been closed

"If you were in the park and saw something, regardless of the reason you were there, please get in touch. Our focus is on what happened to Tyler and who was responsible.

"Similarly, if you were driving through Elmwood Avenue, returning home or out walking, did you notice anything? Did you see anyone else in the park on bikes alone or in a group? Did you perhaps see Tyler, who was wearing dark clothing, riding his grey bike?"

He said the H25 bus route goes through Elmwood Avenue, and appealed for anyone on it who might have seen something: "Did you see Tyler or anyone matching his description?"

"Tyler's family and friends are inconsolable after receiving the worst possible news imaginable - our thoughts are with them and they are being supported by specialist officers," he added.

The three arrested men remain in police custody.
