A man’s body has been found in far-southwest New South Wales.
The body, believed to be a man in his 50s, was found outside the town of Wentworth on Thursday.
He has not been formally identified.
The body was found a few hundred metres from the Murray River and about 3km from the centre of the Wentworth township.
In a statement, NSW Police say officers were called to reports of a scrub fire at Log Bridge Road on Thursday morning.
“During a search of the area, police located the body of a man,” a police spokesperson said.
“He is yet to be formally identified; however, is believed to be aged in his 50s.”
“A crime scene has been established and forensically examined.”
Detectives say the death is suspicious, and examiners will conduct a post-mortem.
Police want anyone who was in Wentworth or Log Bridge Road during the past week, and anyone with information or footage, to come forward.
