A post-mortem examination is due to take place later today on the body of a man who died in Connemara yesterday morning following an alleged assault.
Emergency services were called to a house in Baile na hAbhainn shortly after 9am yesterday morning, and a man in his 60's was treated at the scene by paramedics before being brought to University Hospital Galway where he died a short time later.
A man subsequently arrested is still being detained at Salthill Garda Station.
Gardai say the results of the post-mortem will determine the course of their investigation.
