Following the discovery of two suitcases on one of the most well-known bridges in the UK, both of which were suspected to contain human remains, police in the UK launched a manhunt on Thursday.

Late on Wednesday, Avon and Somerset Police received a report about a man acting suspiciously on the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol, southwest England, who was carrying a suitcase.

When the police arrived at the scene ten minutes later, the man had already left the luggage, and they soon discovered another suitcase.

She added, "Our immediate priority is to locate the man who took the suitcases to the bridge, identify the deceased, and inform their next of kin."
