Three arrests have been made following the death of a man in Frome this week.

Police were called by paramedics to a property in Castle Street at approximately noon on Monday 17 October.

Earlier today, a 38-year-old woman and a 36-year-old man were arrested on suspicion of manslaughter. A 42-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of the same offence yesterday (Thursday 20 October). All remain in custody.
