Police and paramedics responded to a call to a house in Chestnut Avenue, Kenilworth

Three people have been arrested after a man died at a house in Kenilworth.

Emergency services were called to the property in Chestnut Avenue on Friday just before midnight, where a male was found in cardiac arrest and died.

A 24-year-old man, a 49-year-old woman and 16-year-old male have been arrested on suspicion of murder. All three suspects are currently in custody, Warwickshire Police said.

Det Sup Charlie Naughton said while the investigation was in its early stages, they believe the incident was contained to the house and there is no risk to the wider public.

"I know this will cause a great deal of shock in the local community. We'll have officers in the area and I'd encourage anyone with information to speak to one of them."

Anyone with information is asked to contact Warwickshire Police.
