A man found dead in Dublin yesterday was the victim of an accident, gardaí said today.
Results of a post-mortem on the body were not released, but gardaí do not believe the death was suspicious.
A Garda spokeswoman said: "We believe it was accidental. It's not a murder investigation."
The body of the man, in his early 40s, was discovered in a flat at Harold's Cross Road in Terenure at 1.30 p.m. yesterday by the man's landlord.
