POLICE on the Isle of Wight were yesterday investigating two suspected suicides.

The body of a man was found hanging from a tree in North-wood Park, Cowes, early on Tuesday, while, hours later, a man died after falling from the Somerfield multi-storey car park in Newport town centre.

The man found hanging is thought to be a 30-year old from Cowes, while the other is said to be a 35-year-old from the Newport area. Their names have not been released.

Detective Inspector Clive Merrett said that neither death was being treated as suspicious.
