AN investigation is underway after the body of a man was discovered in Barnsley on Monday.
Officers were called to a property in Princess Street at around 11am following the discovery of the body of a man, thought to be in his 20s.
A spokesman from South Yorkshire Police said: “At this time, the man’s death is being treated as unexplained. Enquiries currently remain ongoing in the area to ascertain the exact circumstances surrounding his death.
“A number of agencies are assisting with these enquiries and there is no wider risk to members of the local community.”
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
