A 32-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a woman's body was found at a property in Boston in Lincolnshire.

The body was found in Elizabeth Road, Boston, yesterday afternoon.

Formal identification has not yet been carried out and we are therefore not yet in a position to be able to name the deceased woman.

A post mortem examination will take place in due course.

DI Jim Hodgson, of EMSOU Major Crime, said:

“I would like to hear from anyone who may have been in the area of Elizabeth Road between the hours of 6pm on Thursday May 19 and 3pm on Friday May 20 and may have seen or heard anything they think might be relevant to the enquiry."
