A 40-year-old man arrested in connection with the death of a woman in Newtownabbey has been released on bail as police continue to investigate. The woman was found dead at a property in the Old Mill Drive area on Sunday afternoon.
Police in Northern Ireland have confirmed that a 40-year-old man, arrested in connection with the death of a woman in Newtownabbey, has been released on bail pending further enquiries.
Emergency services, including officers from the Police Service of Northern Ireland and the Northern Ireland Ambulance Service, were called to an address in the Old Mill Drive area on the afternoon of Sunday, 12th October.
Tragically, a woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
Detective Chief Inspector Tom Phillips from the Major Investigation Team said:
“My thoughts are, first and foremost, with the woman’s family who are left trying to come to terms with the loss of their loved one.
Following a post-mortem examination, the woman’s death is not being treated as murder at this time. Our enquiries, however, are continuing to establish the exact circumstances surrounding the death.”
Police continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident. DCI Phillips urged anyone with relevant information to come forward.
“I would appeal to anyone with information to contact us on 101, quoting reference number 701 of 12/10/25.”
A police presence and cordons remain in the Old Mill Drive area as enquiries continue.
