Body of boy who slipped off jetty in Somerset found
Dylan Cecils body found
Police have confirmed a body found is that of a four-year-old boy who slipped from a jetty into the sea.
Dylan Cecil was on holiday with his family when he disappeared under the muddy water at Burnham-on-Sea, Somerset, at 6pm on Sunday.
A body found on Thursday less than half a mile from where he went missing was yesterday formally identified as that of the youngster, a spokesman for Avon and Somerset Police said.
His family, from Kettering, Northamptonshire, said while they are still traumatised by what has happened, they are grateful to have his body back so they can bury him properly.
The body was found near a yacht club in the town by a member of the public at the mouth of the River Brue.
