A man found shot dead in a woodland in Sheffield has been named by police.

The body of Ryan Kettlewell, 38, from Sheffield, was found in Ecclesall Woods on Wednesday.

In a statement released through South Yorkshire Police, his family described him as a “lovable character who will be missed”.

A 34-year-old woman and a 36-year-old man who were arrested in Manchester on Thursday on suspicion of murder have since been bailed.

His family added: “We will always continue to love him and will miss him greatly.”

Police said the body was discovered by a member of the public at about 18:45 BST.

A post-mortem examination revealed he died as a result of a gunshot wound.
