Mystery as two bodies found in River Thames but police say they're not linked
Two bodies have been found in the River Thames in Grays, Essex, but police are treating them as separate incidents.
Officers were called shortly before 7.30am today following reports that a body of a woman had been discovered in the river near Wharf Road.
A cordon has been put in place in a nearby car park, with at least five police cars, an ambulance and one fire engine pictured at the scene.
The woman who was found was pronounced dead, with officers discovering a second body while dealing with the incident, Essex Live reports.
Essex Police remain at the riverbank and have confirmed that they do not believe the deaths to be linked.
David Cox, 40, who lives nearby, told Essex Live: "I heard the sirens this morning and came out and saw all the police cars and fire engines.
"It’s a bit of a first really. I woke up to that news and I didn’t know what to make if it.
"I’ve lived here for seven years. The only thing was another body washed up about three or four years ago.
"My misses left for work this morning and she must have walked past it.
"I thought it would still be a crime scene now. I can’t believe all the police have gone already."
Pub manager Dawn Gregory told Essex Live: "I got a phone call at 8.50am. I have been told not to open up at the moment.
"I think this is the second time that it’s happened while I have been here. It was a lady last time.
"I am just sorry for their loss. It’s so sad. It’s a horrible loss for anybody."
Emergency services left the scene at around 12pm.
Police are not treating the deaths as suspicious as there is no evidence to suggest either person entered the water at the same place or at the same time.
Neither of the bodies have been identified yet.
A spokesman for Essex Police said: "Police were contacted at just before 7.30am today, following reports that a body of a woman had been discovered in the river at Wharf Road, Grays.
"Officers and paramedics attended the scene but the woman was sadly pronounced dead.
"Whilst at the scene, officers discovered a second body.

"Police, paramedics, fire crews and the Coastguard remain at the scene."
Officers are not treating the deaths as suspicious as there is no evidence to suggest either person entered the water at the same place or at the same time.
A Coastguard spokesman said the service responded to the incident but did not give any further details.
The RNLI was called to the scene by the Coastguard, however it was unable to respond due to low tide.

`` I think this is where he 's been struggling in this midfield and its blend and balance , '' McClaren told Sky Sports .

A family claim a builder threatened to strip the tiles off their roof during work to install a lift for their severely disabled daughter .
In 2018 the Hardy family hired Steve Hunt to build a lift and first-floor extension at their home so their six-year-old daughter Lilly could safely get upstairs .
The family began to get frustrated with the lack of progress and inconsistency with who was working on site several weeks after the build began , Hull Live reports .
Having already paid Mr Hunt £22,000 , Samuel Hardy sent him a text explaining that the outstanding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the job .
The builder , who had known the homeowner since childhood , sent a profanity laden response .
“ Then I ’ m coming to strip your roof you f****** c*** , '' he wrote .
The text prompted Mr Hardy to ask the builder not to complete the work .
The Hull man said : `` We were told the build would take 10 weeks which was great because Lily was due in for a major operation and we could no longer safely carry her upstairs to bath her and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ We didn ’ t have to pay for the lift itself because it was paid for with Lily ’ s disability grant , but we said we would pay the £24,000 to have the upstairs extended so the lift would go straight into her bedroom and wetroom .

`` We also found out afterwards we were exempt from VAT as this was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we were paying Mr Hunt included VAT . ''
The family claims that roof tiles were not fitted correctly , lead work on the porch was unfinished and guttering was fitted at the incorrect height .
They also assert that the floor extension was not reinforced in order to hold a specialist bath , window wills were fitted with MDF instead of PVC , new plaster was cracked , two steel beams were removed , the lead on a bay window was n't completed and the access hole to incorporate the lift was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ claimed water was coming through the new bay window and that the kitchen roof was `` hanging down '' where the lift hatch should have been .
“ There was dust and bits of plaster just hanging down where I make Lily her food and sort out her medication ” , said Mrs Hardy .
“ Lily has microlissencephaly ( a rare brain disorder ) , global development delay , cerebral palsy and severe epilepsy .
She is fed through a tube and everything needs to be as clean as possible .
“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any of the meetings with East Riding Council about the construction of the lift , and in the end we just asked him to cover the hole back up and the council agreed to do it themselves .
“ Lily needs 24-hour care and for Mr Hunt to turn around to us and say the build was causing him stress is beyond belief .
“ Our daughter has a life-limiting illness and this build was so she could have a better quality of life , so she could use her own bedroom and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too heavy for us to carry upstairs safely .
“ We wanted to provide a better environment for our daughter but Mr Hunt couldn ’ t be bothered to turn up and then threatened us when we told him we wouldn ’ t pay until the work had been completed .
“ If he can do that to a severely disabled child , what must he have been like with other people ?
” Mr Hunt was recently bankrupted and allegedly left an extension incomplete after a family paid him £18,000 , Hull @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if he had made an official complaint about Mr Hunt ’ s alleged behaviour , he “ could have stopped another family being hurt ” .
“ I went round to the other family ’ s house and apologised to them , ” he said .
“ I felt that if we had taken Mr Hunt ’ s behaviour further , he wouldn ’ t have been able to do this to them .
“ Mr Hunt took us to court , claiming we still owed him £5,500 .
He caused us so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ him enough money , and said he was hardworking and the work he did was satisfactory .
“ We found receipts showing he had been paid £22,000 and after that he wrote a letter to the court asking to cancel the hearing .
“ This was after I had driven up from a family holiday in Devon to be there in person.
” A letter to the court from Mr Hunt said : “ This case has caused me extreme stress and depression over the past few months .
“ The evidence [ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ amount owed to me by Mr Hardy for the work I did not complete as per my quotation .
“ I am informing you that I no longer want to proceed with this claim … I apologise to the courts for wasting their time .
“ So with my dignity and self-respect intact I am asking you to cancel the hearing.
” A year after work started , the family were finally able to complete the build with the help of the council and other builders , meaning Lily can finally have her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sleeping downstairs with Lily because we couldn ’ t get her upstairs properly ” , said Mrs Hardy .
“ We have had our work completed and we ’ re probably the lucky ones , but we don ’ t want him to be able to do this to other families who are spending their hard-earned money .

“There was dust and bits of plaster just hanging down where I make Lily her food and sort out her medication”, said Mrs Hardy.
“Lily has microlissencephaly (a rare brain disorder), global development delay, cerebral palsy and severe epilepsy. She is fed through a tube and everything needs to be as clean as possible.
“Mr Hunt had not turned up to any of the meetings with East Riding Council about the construction of the lift, and in the end we just asked him to cover the hole back up and the council agreed to do it themselves.
“Lily needs 24-hour care and for Mr Hunt to turn around to us and say the build was causing him stress is beyond belief.

“Our daughter has a life-limiting illness and this build was so she could have a better quality of life, so she could use her own bedroom and use the wetroom – she’s too heavy for us to carry upstairs safely.
“We wanted to provide a better environment for our daughter but Mr Hunt couldn’t be bothered to turn up and then threatened us when we told him we wouldn’t pay until the work had been completed.
“If he can do that to a severely disabled child, what must he have been like with other people?”
Mr Hunt was recently bankrupted and allegedly left an extension incomplete after a family paid him £18,000, Hull Daily Mail reported.

Mr Hardy believes if he had made an official complaint about Mr Hunt’s alleged behaviour, he “could have stopped another family being hurt”.
“I went round to the other family’s house and apologised to them,” he said.
“I felt that if we had taken Mr Hunt’s behaviour further, he wouldn’t have been able to do this to them.
“Mr Hunt took us to court, claiming we still owed him £5,500. He caused us so much stress saying we had not paid him enough money, and said he was hardworking and the work he did was satisfactory.
“We found receipts showing he had been paid £22,000 and after that he wrote a letter to the court asking to cancel the hearing.

“This was after I had driven up from a family holiday in Devon to be there in person.”
A letter to the court from Mr Hunt said: “This case has caused me extreme stress and depression over the past few months.
“The evidence [of £22,000] more than covers the amount owed to me by Mr Hardy for the work I did not complete as per my quotation.
“I am informing you that I no longer want to proceed with this claim … I apologise to the courts for wasting their time.
“So with my dignity and self-respect intact I am asking you to cancel the hearing.”
A year after work started, the family were finally able to complete the build with the help of the council and other builders, meaning Lily can finally have her own space.
“We spent weeks sleeping downstairs with Lily because we couldn’t get her upstairs properly”, said Mrs Hardy.
“We have had our work completed and we’re probably the lucky ones, but we don’t want him to be able to do this to other families who are spending their hard-earned money.”
MirrorOnline attempted to contact Mr Hunt.

The Met Office has warned the public about the severity of the Storm Dennis with rain, wind and ice all set for the UK on Saturday and Sunday
Storm Dennis will bring severe flooding and heavy rain to much of the UK this weekend, the Met Office has warned.
The forecaster has issued several amber warnings for torrential rain this Saturday and Sunday.
The Met Office has warned that fast flowing or deep floodwater is likely, homes and businesses are likely to be flooded,and there's a good chance communities will be cut off by flooded roads.
Four separate amber warnings are in place on Sunday - two which cover the south of England, one for south Wales and another in the north west of England.
Met Office meteorologist Alex Burkill said Storm Dennis, the fourth named storm of the 2019-20 season, would bring severe gales and heavy rain that will push east across the country.

Saturday is expected to be "the most hazardous day", he said.
"Whilst it's going to be very windy, they do look like they will be a touch down to what we saw with Storm Ciara," he added.
Overnight last night heavy rain has caused rivers to burst across the country this morning, flooding high streets and homes.
Pictures and video show Truro city centre, in Cornwall, submerged in water, with people in nearby Fowey wading through knee-high waters.
The amber warnings state: "Spells of heavy and prolonged rain are expected to affect parts of England and Wales over the weekend with a higher likelihood of impacts now expected in some areas.
"Around 20-40 mm of rain will fall widely with 50-80 mm likely across parts of northern and southern England.
"Over the higher ground of Wales and southwest England, 120-140 mm of rain is possible in a few locations.
"This rain is expected to fall across areas already wet from recent rainfall."
