A MAN was found dead in a park today, Sunday.
Emergency services were sent to Queens Park, off Boundary Road, just before 8am to reports of concern for the safety of a man.
Police and paramedics attended the scene and found a man had died.
Enquiries are ongoing to formally identify the man and inform his next of kin.
Although the death is not thought to be suspicious at this time it is being treated as "unexplained".
A post-mortem investigation will be conducted to establish the cause of death.
A forensics tent is set up in the children's area of the park and there are a number of police cars parked up on surrounding roads, Lingholme Road and Dilloway Street.
