The discovery was made during a massive search for the toddler who disappeared in Suffolk on Tuesday afternoon.
A body has been found in the search for three-year-old Noah Woods who vanished after a visit to a village playground.
Several hundred volunteers as well as teams from the police, fire, coastguard and search and rescue had joined the desperate hunt for the toddler, who ran down an alleyway in Brantham, Suffolk on Tuesday afternoon and disappeared.
In an update on Wednesday, Superintendent Tom Pearse from Suffolk police said that the body of a child had been discovered in a nearby pond and that Noah’s family had been told.
“First and foremost, our thoughts are with Noah’s family and all those who knew him,” he told journalists at Brantham Leisure Centre.
