SEVEN people have been arrested on suspicion of murder after a body was found in a well on the Croydon/Surrey border yesterday.
Police were called to the garden of a three-bedroomed cottage in Audley Drive, Warlingham, at around 1.50pm yesterday (Friday).
Gardeners were clearing half an acre of land when they looked down the garden's well and spotted what they thought was a body.
Officers were called to the scene where they still remain today, along with the Metropolitan Police's underwater and confined space search team.
The body has yet to be recovered from the four feet of water in the well, and police have said the cause of death is not yet known, nor is the age or gender of the body.
Any witnesses or anyone with information is asked to call the police incident room on 020 8721 4961 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
