A woman arrested on suspicion of murder has been released after the man, in his 50s, was found with serious injuries – which later proved fatal despite the efforts of emergency services – at an address in Thorne Close at around 3pm on Thursday (January 4).

A post mortem has now taken place and was undetermined with further tests required, a spokesperson said.

The woman, in her 40s, who was arrested on suspicion of murder, was released from custody at Swindon’s Gablecross Police Station on conditional bail while enquiries continue.

A cordon put in place at the address has also been lifted as the investigation continues.
