Fatality on Hatch St Upper

Bracken81

I'd love to know why the death of a person on Hatch St Upper this morning has not been reported anywhere in the Irish press today?
How long do the gardai generally investigate such fatalities?

Allegedly a homeless person was stabbed.
Blood covering the road and path, and the area was cordoned off for 2 hours max. Police tape has since been removed and the builders working on a wall to the Iveagh gardens have been working away since.

Seems unlikely that the Garda cordon would be removed if someone died. They’d have all kinds of crime scene people that would have to examine it.

Have had it confirmed by a member of the Gardai that a person died at the scene this morning
No confirmation it was a man/woman/homeless person as of yet
(there are normally tents pitched here)

Area has been re-opened since 12pm and no mention of it in any media outlet so far

Sounds like it might have been a suicide in that case.

You could well be right

Its quite strange though the fact the cordon was removed so quickly

Strange that not reported. Dublin is really a city of the haves and have nots. I'm familar with that area and it is a posh district on the surface but also homeless people and drug addicts.

According to 98FM news it wasn’t a fatality, it was a 19 year old who was attacked and is in hospital with serious injuries

When did victim classification or identification parlance change to the extent that being homeless became a differentiation akin to gender?

It's not grammar, it's a genuine question?
Why differentiate between someone's gender or housing status?
It's bizarre.

Has your Garda source updated you further?
