A woman has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a man was found unresponsive in a park and later died.

The force said the man in his 50s was treated by emergency services but "later declared deceased" and a 28-year-old woman was arrested at the scene.

A spokesperson added detectives were treating it as an isolated incident, and appealed for witnesses to come forward.
