Police are seeking help to identify a man whose body was found on Roa Island in Cumbria. The man, believed to be aged between 50 and 70, had no identification or distinguishing marks. Police have released a forensic artist's image of the man in hopes of finding someone who recognizes him.

The man's body was found in the village just south of Rampside at Barrow-in-Furness on April 30 this year, Cumbria Police said. His death is not being treated as suspicious.

The man is white, around 6ft tall and believed to be aged around 50 to 70. Officers said he may be of European rather than UK or Irish origin, however, it is unclear. Anyone who recognises him, or who has any information, is being urged to get in touch. Detective Inspector Laura Nield at Cumbria Police said: "We are not treating the man’s death as suspicious.

She added: "Whilst the amount of information we have about the unidentified man is limited, the image we have secured for release to the public is excellent quality and may hopefully lead to someone getting in touch with information which can assist. I would urge anyone who does suspect they have any information – no matter how small – to get in touch today."
