Tragic news from mid Wales as the body of a missing 18-year-old has been found after an extensive search in the River Wye. The teen went missing on Tuesday evening, and a major search operation was launched, involving police, fire brigades, and mountain rescue teams. The A483 near Glasbury had to be closed off to assist with the search efforts.
Sadly, after hours of searching, officials have confirmed the discovery of a body. Our thoughts and sympathies are with the young man’s family during this heart-breaking time. Police presence in the Glasbury area will remain for some time, and the public is kindly asked to avoid the site to allow investigations to proceed smoothly.
This is a stark reminder of the importance of water safety, especially as we enter the summer months. Please stay safe and look out for one another. Keep updated on local news by following our posts and sharing important updates with your community. Stay informed and stay safe.
