Police have said they are not treating the death of a man in Co Down as suspicious.
The body of the 36-year-old man was found at a house in Sandy Street, Newry, at about 2.30pm on Tuesday. He had not yet been named on Wednesday afternoon.

Elsewhere, a man's body has been recovered from the River Foyle at Prehen in Londonderry.
Members of Foyle Search and Rescue helped in the recovery of the body on Tuesday.
A post-mortem examination is due to be carried out later today to determine the cause of death.
