A man aged in his 50s was arrested as part of the investigation remains in custody at Finglas Garda Station.

A preliminary report of the post-mortem results has been given to the investigating team, though the details are not being released for operational reasons.

As part of the investigation, Gardaí are appealing to those who were travelling on the 120 Dublin Bus route on Friday morning – going from Rathbourne Avenue to Merrion Road – to come forward.

A 120 bus departed Rathbourne Avenue at approximately 8.30am and travelled to Spindrift Avenue in Royal Canal Park, where Gardaí said an incident took place.
