Dyfed Powys Police has said it has launched a serious criminal inquiry following the discovery of a body in Pembroke on Saturday morning.

The road was sealed off while scenes of crime officers carried out an investigation.

Police have not yet released details of the body's identity.

A total of 13 people have been taken to hospital after two buses were involved in a collision in Cardiff city centre.

A south Wales doctor has been cleared of eight charges of indecent assault on women patients.
