A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after the body of Anthony Clemmings was discovered in a rooftop garden at a block of flats in Bristol earlier this week.
Mr Clemmings, known as Tony, was found by a member of the public at the Redcliff Street development at around 8.20am on Tuesday. Avon and Somerset Police confirmed on Friday that a 50-year-old man had been arrested in the West Midlands in connection with the death and remains in custody.
The force said forensic and CCTV enquiries had been carried out following the discovery, with additional patrols deployed in the surrounding area. Officers are continuing to appeal for anyone with information that could assist the investigation to come forward.
Following his death, Mr Clemmings’ family paid tribute to him, describing their “much-loved son, brother and uncle” as a “lovely man to all those that truly knew him,” adding that he would be “greatly missed,” according to the BBC.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Avon and Somerset Police.
