The body of a man in his 30s has been found outside an apartment complex in Dublin.
The discovery was at the Charlotte Quay apartment complex at 8am this morning.
Gardaí believe he was a burglar who lost his footing and fell to his death from a third floor apartment. The man has now been identified.
The man had climbed up the outside of the building and clambered into an apartment, where a number of items were stolen.
It is thought that he lost his footing while climbing back down, sustaining fatal head injuries.
A post mortem will be carried out this afternoon at Dublin City Morgue.
