GARDAÍ HAVE LAUNCHED an investigation into the death of a man in his 70s who died after being discovered in an “unresponsive” state this morning on a local road in Co Cork.
The man was found on a local road at around 6.30am in the Kildarra area of Bandon in Co Cork.
He was pronounced dead at the scene a short time later.
The Coroner has been notified and the man’s body has since been removed to the mortuary at Cork University Hospital.
A post-mortem examination will be arranged and a garda spokesperson said the outcome of the post-mortem will determine the course of the investigation.
Gardaí are appealing for witnesses to come forward, and have made a particular appeal to anyone who saw a man cycling in the Kildarra area in the early hours of this morning.
Additionally, any road users who may have camera footage, including dash-cam, and were traveling in the area at the time asked to make it available.
Anyone with any information is asked to contact Bandon Garda Station on 023 885 2200, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any Garda Station.
