A forensics team has been spotted in woods near Norwich following reports a body was found at the site.
Six police cars and a forensics van were seen in Middleton Crescent in Costessey on Tuesday afternoon.
There are reports the body was found in Costessey Woods.
A woman who lives nearby, who wishes to remain anonymous, said: "I spoke to the kids who found the body while playing manhunt in the woods.
"There was about 10 or 15 of them and I am guessing they rang the police around 4pm."

A man who lives in Richmond Road, near the entrance of Costessey Woods, said: "I heard some school kids found the body while playing near East Hills."
It follows a double tragedy in the area last week after two sudden deaths within a mile of each other and just hours apart.
The first occurred when a woman in her 40s was hit by a car during the busy school run rush hour on Dereham Road in Costessey.
The following morning the body of a man in his 20s was discovered in a nearby Longwater Park.
Police are not aware of a link between the two tragedies, but the deaths happening so close together left the community shaken.
