A man walking his dog discovered a body on a beach near the northeastern coastal town of Seaham. The victim was wearing only socks and one shoe. Experts from Queens University in Belfast carried out isotope analysis of the body, which proved the deceased had lived in Northern Europe and forensic pathology experts narrowed his age down to between 40 and 60. Officers tried and failed to trace the man through his clothing, including his £100-a-pair Camper shoes. The shoe was so worn that the sole was cracked. Checks had been carried out with police forces across the country, the Missing Persons Register, the Coastguard, and even Interpol without success. DNA tests were carried out as well, but no matches were found on the DNA database.
