'Mrs Jones' family and H M Coroner have been informed. We thank the local community for all their assistance.'

Meanwhile, local Labour MP Alex Davies-Jones has pleaded with the public to 'avoid any speculation'.

She said: 'This is a devastating update and my heart goes out to everyone impacted by this news.
