Man’s death no longer suspicious, say police

-

POLICE have ruled out any third party involvemen­t after the discovery of a man’s body in a Wallsend bungalow.

Officers cordoned off an address on Lauderdale Avenue at around 10.40am on Friday and described the cause of death as “unexplaine­d”.

Paramedics were also called to the scene and detectives were seen going door to door quizzing neighbours.

A 36-year-old man was arrested shortly after but has been released without charge.

A Northumbri­a Police spokespers­on said: “Police are no longer treating the report of a body found in Lauderdale Avenue, Wallsend on Friday, March 9, as unexplaine­d.

“Following further investigat­ions, detectives do not think there was any third party involvemen­t. A coroner’s report is being prepared.”
