The body of a man believed to be that of missing 24-year-old Fraser Anderson has been found by police - who say they are not treating the death as suspicious. 

Mr Anderson was last seen on Wednesday morning in Squitchey Lane and earlier this evening police confirmed they found a body in North Oxford.

Formal identification is yet to take place but police believe it is that of the 24-year-old. 

Police first expressed concern for his whereabouts at 10pm last night after he was not seen since 7am Wednesday morning.

A police Facebook appeal was launched and shared and viewed by thousands of people. 

He was last seen wearing a black rain jacket with "Darwin College" written on it in white letters with the letters 'R' and 'W' missing, police said. 

He was also wearing black Nike trainers and was carrying a pale grey rucksack. 

His next of kin have been informed.
