Police investigating the disappearance of Jesus Moreno have found the body of a male.
The body was found by a police search team yesterday afternoon on land close to the River Wharfe in the Harewood area.
West Yorkshire Police announced the discovery in a statement this afternoon. It added there were no suspicious circumstances. The statement added:
Mr Moreno, 41, who worked at a Leeds brewery, was last seen more than eight months ago in August 2022.

He was spotted on CCTV catching a 36 bus to Harrogate at Leeds bus station at 6.10am on Monday, August 1.
He got off the bus at Swindon Lane near Dunkeswick, just north of Harewood bridge on the A61, at 6.39am.
He was then seen on CCTV near the bridge at 8.14am.
Today's news comes two weeks after West Yorkshire Police said it had “exhausted every possible line of enquiry” and issued a fresh appeal for help.
Police had searched the countryside and river near where Mr Moreno was last seen.
Drones were used and the family even used a psychic to try to help.
