Body of man tragically found in Dublin house as Gardai make grim discovery

The body of a man has been found in a Dublin house by Gardai in a grim late night discovery.

Officers found the man at a residential property on North Frederick Street when the alarm was raised shortly before 11pm.

It is understood that foul play is not suspected in the sudden death of the man who was in his 40s.

Inner City Helping Homeless (ICHH) CEO Anthony Flynn believes that the man was homeless - making that the third homeless person to die in Dublin in one week.

His untimely death also takes the homeless toll to over 50 for this year so far.

He said: "I am completely saddened to say that another homeless person has died tonight.

"How much longer will this be allowed to continue without intervention?"

On Friday last, the body of a man in his 40s was found near the IFSC.

And on Saturday, a homeless Dublin mother-of-four, Janet Jackson was found dead in a tent in Clondalkin.

A Garda spokesman confirmed the latest homeless death to Dublin Live.

He said: "Gardaí were alerted to the sudden death of a man (40s) at a residential property on North Frederick Street in Dublin City, yesterday 29 October 2020 at approximately 10.30pm."
