'Two houses 100 miles apart are being searched by police after a man was arrested on suspicion of murdering missing university chef Claudia Lawrence. A 59-year-old man, named locally as Michael Snelling, was arrested this morning at a house in North Shields, Tyneside, on suspicion of murdering Miss Lawrence, who went missing in York in March 2009.

Neighbours said his car was seized as police officers began a search of the semi-detached property. Snelling's home in York was also cordoned off, boarded up and subjected to a forensic search today. North Yorkshire Police confirmed a man had been arrested on suspicion of Miss Lawrence's murder but stressed the chef had not been found.

It is understood that the house where Mr Snelling was arrested, in Hollywell Road, North Shields, is his mother's home. Neighbours in York said he spent a lot of time at the property, in the area where he grew up. But, they said, he would return to York during the week for work.'
