A post mortem is due to be carried out today on the body of a seven-month-old girl who died in Limerick yesterday.

The infant's body was found in a bed in a house in the Ballynanty area shortly after 12pm.

Gardaí have sealed off the house on Shanabooley Road where the body was found in case today's post mortem uncovers evidence of foul play.
