A 52-year-old woman has been found dead in her car after she went missing for two days.

Carol Ann Dyer, of Allyington Way, Maidenbower, Crawley, was found near Handcross yesterday.

Her body was discovered in her white Renault 5 at Plummers Plain by a man who stopped to help.

She had last been seen at about 3pm on Monday.

She left a note at home saying she was popping to see friends but she never came home and relatives feared she was depressed.

Her death is not being treated as suspicious.
