Gardaí in Dublin are investigating the death of a homeless man in Temple Bar.
The body of the man - who was a foreign national and in his fifties - was found on Cow's Lane shortly before 9 o'clock this morning.
The city's Lord Mayor has expressed his condolences to the man and his family.
It's understood the man was a regular user of services at outreach group Merchant's Quay Ireland. He had been ill in recent weeks - and Gardaí at this stage don't suspect foul play.
The death comes little over a month after the discovery of Jonathan Corrie's body just yards away from Leinster House sparked major concerns about the homelessness crisis in Ireland.
