A body has been found in a forest search after a runner went missing five days ago, Durham Police have said. Jenny Hall, 23, was last seen leaving her home at Barracks Farm, Tow Law, County Durham, just after 3pm on Tuesday. Her red Ford Focus was found parked on a B road between Eggleston and Stanhope on Wednesday.
The force said the body was found in a very remote area in Teesdale on Sunday morning. Formal identification has yet to take place, but the police said there was not thought to be any suspicious circumstances. Ms Hall’s family have been notified and are being supported by specialist officers, with the force adding they asked for privacy in this “devastating time.”.
