Murder Investigation And Arrest After Death In Yarmouth

A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder following the death of a woman in Yarmouth.

Hampshire Constabulary says it detained a man in his 60s yesterday evening (Monday).

It follows the death of a woman last month.

Officers were called to a property in the High Street on September 22. Police say a 'seriously ill' woman was taken to St Mary's Hospital, where she later died.

The death wasn't initially treated as suspicious.

A man, who was known to the woman, has been detained on suspicion of murder and remains in police custody.

Anyone with information is urged to call police on 101, quoting crime reference number 44210380671 and Operation Caelum.
