- Would it be jumping to conclusions to suspect its definitely an attack?
I saw the cordoned off area near to railings and road junction, it would be possible that they could have done themselves some damage or been in collision with a road vehicle? The report as I read it says the police don't know how it happened?

This story does not have a happy ending. Any speculation at this stage would not be appropriate any any factual information concerning this should be given to the police as soon as possible.

As there is an ongoing police investigation, it would be unwise to post any further comments.

As mentioned by muppetanimal, if anyone has any factual information they should contact the police.
