A 35-year-old man has been arrested following the death of his nine-year-old daughter while the family was camping on an industrial estate. Police described the death as a suspected killing, and the case will raise serious concerns about the circumstances that led a child to be staying with her family on such a site.

Details of the incident, including its exact location, timing and the events leading up to the girl's death, have not been made public. The father remains in custody as police continue their investigation, and further information is expected to emerge as enquiries proceed.
