Pensioner, 71, and her six-year-old grandson are found dead in village duck pond

A grandmother and her six-year-old grandson were at the centre of a police investigation today after their bodies were found in a village duck pond.

The child's worried mother called police last night after the pair failed to turn up at a pre-arranged time.

The boy had spent the previous night with his grandmother and they were due to return home on Thursday evening, police said.

Police went round to the pensioner's address in Castle Bytham but fears grew when they saw that her car was also missing.
