TWO men have been arrested on suspicion of murder following the death of a man in East Belfast.
The two suspects, both aged in their 30s, have been taken to Musgrave Police Station for questioning.
At around 12:10am, police were called to reports of an injured man at a house in Titania Street.
The 29-year-old was treated at the scene by paramedics before being taken to hospital, where he unfortunately died from his injuries a short time later.
Alliance Party councillor Michael Long described the death of the young man as "distressing".
"This is a devastating incident and the local community will be in shock," he said.
"Any death in suspicious circumstances is traumatic but the loss of a young man's life is even more distressing. My thoughts go out to the loved ones of the victim.
"Police are currently treating the death as suspicious, and I would ask anyone with information to contact them immediately."
Detective Superintendent Jason Murphy said: “I am appealing for anyone who was in Titania Street late last night or early this morning and who witnessed anything to contact detectives at Musgrave Police Station on 101 quoting reference 18 08/04/18.
“Alternatively information can be passed to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 which is 100 per cent anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime.”
