Investigations continue into death of unidentified local man

Police are continuing their investigations into the death of an unidentified local man.

A 28 year old man from Douglas is yet to be formally identified following his death on Saturday - his body was found by Police in a flat on Empire Terrace just after 10.30am.

Officers say his death is being treated as unexplained at this time as a post mortem examination was carried out today with no obvious cause of death found.

Chief Inspector Stephen Maddocks is leading the investigation - he says his officers have been making enquiries in the general area - speaking to a number of people to piece together the events leading up to the man's death. 

Further forensic examinations will need to be conducted - the Coroner of Inquests has been informed.
