Soldier 'Murdered' At Shropshire Barracks

A murder investigation has been launched after the body of a soldier was found at Clive Barracks in Shropshire.

The 32-year-old, from the 1st Battalion The Royal Irish Regiment, was discovered at the barracks in Tern Hill at 9am on Saturday morning.

A 23-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder.

Detective inspector Steve Tonks, of West Mercia Police, said: "We have made an arrest in connection with the death.

"The investigation is in its early stages and extensive inquiries are continuing.

"A post-mortem conducted by a Home Office pathologist was held yesterday and further examination and tests are being carried out to help establish the cause of death."

The deceased's next of kin has been informed but his identity has not been revealed.

Det Insp Tonks made an appeal to the public, urging anyone with information to contact Shrewsbury CID.

A spokesman for the Ministry of Defence said: "We are assisting West Mercia Police with their inquiries.

"Our thoughts are with the family, but it would be inappropriate to comment further at this time."
