Deaths of man and woman not believed to be suspicious – police

A man and woman who died at a house in Glenrothes do not appear to have been “victims of harm”, police have said.

Officers were called to a house in the Forres Drive area of the Fife town shortly after 6pm on Thursday October 4 by the Scottish Ambulance Service.

A 48-year-old man and a 37-year-old woman were found unresponsive within the property, and pronounced dead at the scene.

Officers said the deaths do not appear to be suspicious.

Following a post-mortem examination on Monday they are continuing to treat the deaths as unexplained pending toxicology reports.

Detective Chief Inspector Scott Cunningham said: “Although the investigation continues to establish a cause of death, there is no evidence of violence or anything to suggest that the man and woman were the victims of harm prior to their deaths.

“Our condolences remain with their families at this time, and we thank the local community for their patience and co-operation as we conducted enquiries in the area.”

A report has been submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.
