A man has been arrested at the address
Reality TV star Harry Savage, best known for his appearances on Hunted, has died aged 26 at his home address.
His death is being treated as unexpected while police have arrested a man in his 30s who was later bailed awaiting further enquiries.
A post-mortem examination commenced on Saturday (20 July) while authorities await the results of toxicology tests.
Paramedics found a man unresponsive after being called to a home in Putney, southwest London, at around 9:15am on Friday (19 July), before pronouncing him dead at the scene.
The 26-year-old rose to prominence after appearing on series four of Hunted in 2019 which was filmed when he was a 20-year-old drama student.
The show follows a group of ordinary people who are pursued by former police and intelligence officers as they try to evade capture.
Harry appeared on the show with his brother Frank only weeks after losing their mother, a tragedy which was emotionally shared on the show.
