South Wales Police is appealing for information following the sudden death of a man in the Grangetown area of Cardiff.
Police were alerted to the incident by an anonymous call made just before midnight on Wednesday (March 19, 2014) from a phone kiosk on Clare Road, Grangetown.
Officers found the body of a male, partially submerged in the water on the Taff embankment side of the River Taff, beneath Penarth Road bridge.
A police cordon has been set up at the scene.
Officers investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident are appealing for information.
DI Kath Pritchard said:
“At this early stage we are keeping an open mind as to what may have occurred but we are treating the incident as suspicious. The man appears to have suffered a head injury, but a Home Office Post mortem will now be carried out to determine the cause of his death.
“We want to hear from anybody who has information about the incident. In particular, I would urge the male who initially made the call from the phone kiosk to call back as he may have information which is vital to our ongoing investigation.”
An incident room has been set up at Cardiff Central Police Station.
Anyone with information can contact South Wales Police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
