Devon and Cornwall Police and the Health and Safety Executive have launched an investigation into the death of a woman in a landslip in Looe.
Police have confirmed the identity of the person killed during the landslip incident in Looe, Cornwall on Friday morning as Susan Margaret Norman, a 68 year old local female.
Her Majesty’s Coroner has been informed of the incident.
The investigation into Susan’s death is being jointly managed.

Some residents say they had previously raised concerns about the safety of the land with Cornwall Council.
