We can confirm that the man who died in Woolwich yesterday, 22 May is a serving soldier.

We believe we know his identity but he has yet to be formally identified. His next of kin have been informed.

In line with the wishes of his family we will not be releasing his identity at this stage.

A post-mortem examination will take place later today, 23 May.
