BREAKING: Two arrested after man dies in hospital following Perth incident

Police Scotland have confirmed that a 22-year-old man has died following an incident in Perth in the early hours of this morning (Tuesday, June 4).

Officers were called to attend the property at Wallace Crescent about 2.30am.

On arrival, officers found an injured man.

He had serious injuries and was taken to Ninewells Hospital in Dundee for treatment and sadly died a short time later.

A 23-year-old woman and a 21-year-old man have been arrested in connection with the man’s death.

Detective Inspector Gary Winter of the Major Investigation Team said: "Our thoughts at this time are very much with this young man’s family and friends.

"Enquiries are at an early stage, but I would like reassurance the local community that this appears to be contained incident with no threat to the wider public.

"There will continue to be police presence at the scene and other addresses in the city whilst we continue to investigate this man’s death.

"We are appealing for anyone who was in the area of Wallace Court at Wallace Crescent, Perth in the early of this morning to phone 101 and quote incident number 0259 of today’s date."
