A 34-YEAR-OLD man has died suddenly of a suspected drugs overdose in a Dundee flat.
The man, named locally as Thomas Zielinski, passed away in the flat he shared with his mum on Clepington Road.
It is understood Mr Zielinski was at his home with another male when he died.
Police today confirmed there were no suspicious circumstances surrounding his death.
One neighbour, who did not want to be named, said he heard doors being banged in the common close shortly before there was a knock on his own door.
He explained: “A man came to my door and asked to borrow my mobile to phone an ambulance because he didn’t have one.
“I went to the flat with him while he was using my phone and saw Thomas was dead.
“He was just sitting on the sofa.
“I don’t know what happened, I didn’t see anything which would suggest anything untoward happened to him.”
Officers arrived shortly after receiving a call.
Police were in attendance at the property until midday on Sunday.
A nearby resident said: “There was a police car and van parked right across the road from my flat.
“I saw them walking back and forward from the van to the flat carrying boxes. I also saw them put something into a bag but couldn’t see what it was.
“Some of them had masks on their faces and they were spraying their shoes, as if they were disinfecting them.
“I didn’t know what it was all about at the time.”
Another witness said: “I passed on Saturday and saw about five or six officers coming out of the block and going into a van.
“It looked like something had happened in one of the flats.
“I thought it must have been serious given how many officers there were.”
A spokeswoman for Police Scotland said today: “We attended at an address on Clepington Road, Dundee, on Saturday May 28 following the sudden death of a 34-year-old man.
“There are no suspicious circumstances and a report has been submitted to the procurator fiscal.”
