A major gardai investigation is underway after the body of a man was found in unexplained circumstances in Dublin on Saturday.
Gardai received reports of a male with unexplained injuries on the Old Navan Road, Mulhuddart, Dublin 15, at 2.50am.
The man, aged in his early 60s, was taken to Connolly Hospital Blanchardstown, where he was later pronounced dead.
His body has since been taken to Dublin City Mortuary, where a post-mortem will be conducted on Saturday, the results of which will determine the course of the Garda investigation.
