Skeleton Found in Severn Estuary |
![]() Richey Edwards |
This week
the gruesome find of a skeleton was found in the Severn estuary at Hallen,
close to the Esso Oil Depot at Avonmouth. Forty year old fisherman, Richard
Dorgan, found the bones and didn't think much of it until he saw the human
skull! First thoughts were that it was that of missing Manic Street Preachers guitarist Richey Edwards who disappeared in February 1995. His car had been found abandoned at Aust Services car park and it has been assumed that he fell into the Severn Estuary from the Severn Suspension Bridge. To this day his body has never been found. News just in from the Police says that the skeleton is not that of Richey Edwards. Having examined the teeth their investigation continues. See full story of the disappearance of Richey Edwards in Chris Witts book, "DISASTERS ON THE SEVERN". Published by Tempus Publishing |
