A man’s body that was found in bushes in Wisbech is not being treated as suspicious.
Police were called by the ambulance service just after 7am this morning (Thursday June 13) following the discovery in Cromwell Road.
The body was lying near an entrance to the Nestle Purina petfood factory, opposite the Malt Drive children's park.
A spokesman for Nestle said: "The factory is operating as normal. Our thoughts and sympathies are with the individual's family at this sad time."
Police have now said they do not believe the man's death to be suspicious.
A spokesman said the man's identity had not yet been established but the investigation would now be passed on to the coroner.
Part of Cromwell road was closed off between the South Brink and Weasenham Lane but the road has now re-opened.
