Police were called to a property on Meols Cop Road at approximately 6:03 pm, where they found the body of Ms. Doherty, a woman in her 50s. Her death is currently being treated as “unexplained,” and inquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances.
Merseyside Police have confirmed that two men have been arrested in connection with the investigation. A 48-year-old man from Kirkdale and a 60-year-old man from Ainsdale were arrested on suspicion of murder.
They have since been conditionally bailed pending further enquiries.
