Police have made three arrests after a man died at a house in Kenilworth on Friday (20 March) night.

Police and paramedics responded to a call to a house in Chestnut Avenue just before midnight where a man found in cardiac arrest died.

A 24-year-old man, a 49-year-old woman and 16-year-old male have been arrested on suspicion of murder.

All three suspects, who are white British, are currently in custody, Warwickshire Police confirmed.

The deceased's next of kin has been informed.

Detective Superintendent Charlie Naughton said: "This murder investigation is in its earlier stages and detectives are working hard to establish exactly what happened at the house on Friday evening.

"We have arrested three people who will be questioned to help us get a full picture of what happened. Specially trained officers are supporting the victim's family. 

"At this time, we believe the incident was contained to the house and there is no risk to the wider public.
