A woman has been found dead in the Forest of Dean after an urgent search by police.

67-year-old Michelle was reported missing from an address at around 11.45am on Friday (3 January).

Officers launched a hunt for the woman, who was thought to be in a white Ford Fiesta.

“Her car was located in Bream and a woman was declared deceased”, a spokesperson for Gloucestershire Police said in an update.

They added: “While formal identification has not yet taken place, Michelle’s next of kin has been informed.

“The circumstances of the death are not being treated as suspicious and a file will be prepared for the coroner.

“Officers, assisted by members of the public and the National Police Air Service, were involved in a search during the evening.

“Thank you for sharing the appeal and for those who called in with information about possible sightings of the vehicle.”
