Following the discovery of a woman’s death in an apartment building, a guy is being detained on suspicion of murder.
A woman’s body was found in a Southampton, Hampshire, apartment.
According to The Sun, officers were called to Havre Towers at around 6:30 this morning, and a cordon is still in place.
In custody on suspicion of killing the woman, who is also in her fifties, is a 52-year-old guy.
Both of them are thought to be from Southampton.
A spokesman for Hampshire Constabulary said: ‘We were called at 6.36am this morning following the death of a woman in International Way, Southampton.
‘Police remain on scene and enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances of the death.
‘A 52-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in custody at this time.
‘We encourage anyone with information to please not speculate on the circumstances online, and to provide all information to police in the first instance.’
One neighbour said he heard a ‘loud banging’ and thought ‘something dodgy’ had happened.
He said: ‘I can’t believe what happened. It’s just horrible.
‘Lots of people have their kids around here, and I myself moved into the building only three months ago.’
Another neighbour, a mum of two, said: ‘It’s so sad to be woken up to something like this.
‘I don’t know what happened to her, but I hope her family are doing okay.’
