Foul play ruled out over body found in harbour

GARDAÍ have ruled out foul play in the death of a 24-year-old man whose body was discovered floating in a harbour in Co Cork.

The body of Alan Hayes, from Albert Road, Cork, was discovered at 6.10am on Wednesday, floating in the harbour near the Kinsale town centre.

Following a post-mortem examination yesterday, a senior garda spokesman said gardaí were not treating Mr Hayes’ death as suspicious and believed it may have been a tragic accident.
