A man has been taken to hospital after being found injured inside a Dundee block of flats.

Multiple police vehicles and an ambulance were called to Cullen Place in Craigie just after 10am on Thursday.

Onlookers said the 55-year-old appeared to have a head injury as he was taken away by ambulance.

CID officers going door-to-door

CID officers were in attendance and going door-to-door in an attempt to find out what had happened.

One resident told The Courier: “There were four police units and an ambulance that arrived a short while later.

“I saw two CID officers entering the block with evidence bags and uniformed police remained outside.

“Officers were taking statements and appeared to be going to a number of the neighbouring closes.

“When we saw all the officers and the CID I feared the worst.

“I saw one man being escorted to the ambulance and he had a nasty head injury.

“After he left, the police came out with a number of evidence bags.

One man living nearby says a “trail of blood” was found in the close on Wednesday, but the man’s injury was only discovered on Thursday.

He added: “The emergency services were contacted straight away.”

Police have been on Cullen Place for several hours.

“Officers attended and a 55-year-old man was found injured within.

“He has been taken to Ninewells Hospital for treatment and inquiries into the circumstances are ongoing.”
