Man dies after being found injured at block of flats in Dundee

There is a heavy police presence at the flats in Thurso Crescent.
There is a heavy police presence at the flats in Thurso Crescent.

A man has died after being found injured at a block of flats in Dundee.

The Courier understands a man is assisting police with their inquiries into the incident.

Police units and ambulance crews descended upon the city’s Thurso Crescent at around 1.30am on Wednesday.

An entire block of flats was cordoned off as police investigated and residents were asked to stay in their homes.

A man, believed to be a Polish national, who lives on the third floor is understood to have been the victim.

One neighbour, who lives directly above the reported house in question, said he heard loud music and arguing late on Tuesday night.

It’s understood a female may have been in the property shortly before the incident.

The death is being treated as suspicious.

One resident, who asked not to be named, said: “The close is covered in blood and there’s a big bit of skin outside my door.

“The police found a knife just outside my door as well.

“I’ve been here for eight months and haven’t experienced anything like this. I was woken by the police.”

Six police cars and two ambulances reported to the scene in the early hours of the morning.

One resident said: “The amount of police cars here was unreal.

“One of my friends lives in the flats across the road and was leaving to take his daughter to nursery this morning.

“He was told that if he left he would not get back in until the investigations were finished.”

Officers have been stationed at all entrances to the flats, while police tape surrounds the building.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said:“Police Scotland attended at a common close in Thurso Crescent, Dundee at around 3am this morning (Wednesday, December 23), following a report that a man had been found with serious life- threatening injuries.

“He was taken immediately by ambulance to Ninewells Hospital, where he sadly died. Enquiries into his death are continuing and police are treating the circumstances as suspicious.

“Anyone with information that could assist officers with their enquiries into the incident is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101. Alternatively information can be provided anonymously to the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
