Gardaí in Sligo have launched an investigation following the death of a woman in what they described as “unexplained circumstances”.
The woman’s body was discovered when gardaí and emergency services arrived at a house in Sligo Town just after 8pm on Monday night.
The body was still at the scene on Tuesday morning in advance of a forensic examination by the Garda Technical Bureau.
According to gardaí, the direction of the investigation will be determined by a postmortem which will be carried out by the office of the State Pathologist at a later date.
