The body of a 16-year-old boy who had been reported missing after going fishing on lakes at Sutton-at-Hone, near Dartford, Kent, was pulled from the water by rescue teams on Saturday.
Kent police said that Jack Morrison’s death was not being treated as suspicious and that officers were preparing a report for the coroner.
Relatives of Jack, who went missing on Friday, said that fishing was his “one true love”. He was also a keen footballer, studying and playing at the Volenti football academy. His family said that he was “like a beautiful angel” whose short life brought joy and laughter. “Although your life was short it was full. You had achieved so much and were on a path to success. We can’t begin to put in to words the love and the pride you have given to us,” they said.
