Newcastle, police have said that an 18-year-old man has been arrested after a woman, also aged 18, died at a student hall of residence in Newcastle. Ambulance crews called the police after they were called to the Park View student village at Newcastle University early on Saturday morning- the woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
Northumbria Police said: “At 6.06 am yesterday police received a report via the ambulance service of an unresponsive woman at an address on Richardson Road in Newcastle. Emergency services attended where sadly the woman – aged 18 – was pronounced dead at the scene. Enquiries into the circumstances around her death are ongoing.”
