An appeal for witnesses has been launched after a man has died after he found lying in a Dundee street with a head injury last night.

Around 11pm on Monday 1st January 2018, a 67 year old male was discovered by a member of the public lying on the road at the junction of Mains Road and Bayne Square, in the Hilltown area.

He had sustained a serious head injury and sadly died of his injuries today.

Whilst there are no apparent suspicious circumstances, the injury remains unexplained at this time.

Witnesses are urgently sought to the incident, particularly a taxi driver who had to manoeuvre his vehicle around the injured male, along with the driver of another, saloon-type vehicle (possibly a red Audi), and four men who assisted the injured person into a nearby house.

If you have any information which could assist our enquiries, please call 101 or speak to any Police officer.

Alternatively, information can be passed anonymously through Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111. Our reference is incident number 663 of 2nd January.
