His family paid tribute to him, describing him as a "super-happy, gorgeous, wonderful and intelligent little boy."

In a statement the family said: "He loved the garden and the beach, picking raspberries and going for walks collecting shells.

"He was a very chatty little boy and would happily speak to anyone."

Detective Chief Inspector Matt Davies, said: “We are dealing with a very sad and tragic incident.

"The family continue to be supported by dedicated family liaison officers and once again, I would appeal for members of the public to refrain from speculating on social media at what is a very difficult time for all concerned.

"My thoughts remain with the family."
