A body believed to be that of the arts writer Florence Waters has been found in Oxfordshire. The columnist, who wrote for the Daily Telegraph, had been missing since Monday and a search had been launched across the county.
“Officers have located a body in Thame [on Thursday] evening, which is believed to be that of missing Florence Waters,” Thames Valley police said.
“The body was found on land near Oxford Road, Thame. Florence, aged 33, had been missing since Monday. Florence’s next of kin have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers at this time.”
Waters was last seen at a property in Osney at about 9am on Monday. Police said her death was not believed to be suspicious and a file would be prepared for her coroner.
A profile on the Daily Telegraph’s website said the journalist contributed articles on the visual arts, film and books.
