British police arrested a 24-year-old man in Bristol on Saturday in connection with the grisly discovery of human remains in two suitcases at the Clifton Suspension Bridge in western England.

The Metropolitan Police reported that the suspect had traveled from London to Bristol with the suitcases, which contained the remains of two adult men. The arrest follows reports of a man behaving suspiciously on the bridge just before midnight last Wednesday.

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Andy Valentine said that inquiries are ongoing but confirmed that no additional suspects are currently being sought. Police presence will be heightened in both Bristol and London to reassure communities affected by the incident.
