Coastguards found a body washed up on Brighton beach.

A lifeboat crew made the grisly discovery while on a training exercise near Brighton Marina at about 12.15pm on Sunday.

The body was that of a man thought to be in his 20s. Police are not treating the death as suspicious.

A police spokesman said: "The body appears to have been in the water for some time so it may take a while to identify him."
