Border Body Find Probed
A body has been found near the border with the Irish Republic.
Police are investigating the discovery of the man's body - found yesterday afternoon - in a house near a village in Co Armagh.
The shock discovery was made at a remote house in Creevekeeran Road, Middletown, around noon on Wednesday.
A post mortem examination is to be carried out today as police attempt to establish how the man died.
Though once an important market town, Middletown is now a quiet backwater whose central location between Armagh, Monaghan, Keady, Caledon and Glaslough led to its name.
