Bodies of three women pulled from sea off Brighton in ‘tragic incident’

The bodies of three women have been pulled from the sea in Brighton this morning.

Emergency services were called after concerns were raised for the women’s welfare at around 5.45am on Wednesday, and their bodies were pulled from the water near Madeira Drive.

Chief Superintendent Adam Hays said: ‘This is a tragic incident and fast-moving enquiries are ongoing to confirm the identities of these three women and understand exactly what has happened.

‘I know this is concerning for the community, but I would ask the public to stay away from the scene at this time while emergency services continue their work.
