Police have created a Major Incident Public Reporting (MIPP) page as part of the investigation into the murder of a 74-year-old woman in Ludwell Valley Park in Exeter on Saturday (18 February).

The MIPP allows members of the public who may have information to directly send large files such as Doorbell, CCTV and Dashcam footage that could assist in a police investigation.

Detective Sergeant Darren Campbell from the Major Crime Team said: "We have received a huge amount of information from the public in relation to this crime, but there are still large parts of the day that we need to account for, both pre and post the attack.

"We are asking for anyone who has CCTV, doorbell, phone footage or dashcam of the area that could be of interest to the investigative team, to please submit this via the MIPP.

"You can also report any information that you may have in relation to this murder, not solely footage."

Anyone with any information is asked to report this to Devon and Cornwall Police via the Major Incident Public Reporting site, under Operation Finnart.

A 30-year-old man from the Exmouth area has been arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in police custody.
