A 13-year-old girl is among five people arrested on suspicion of murder after a man’s body was found in a country lane.

A 47-year-old woman and three men, aged 31, 27, and 21, have also been arrested by detectives.

Nottinghamshire Police launched a murder investigation after the man was found in countryside near the village of Everton on Saturday February 2.
