A cordon was put in place after officers were called to a field near a retail park, close to Walton Highway in Norfolk, on Sunday morning.

Anyone with information was asked to contact Norfolk Police.

Jack Brocklehurst, who works at the nearby retail park, said: "It is a quiet area. I am a bit shocked."
