Police are investigating two sudden deaths after two bodies were discovered in less than 24-hours.The collapsed body of a guest worker was found in a Morgan’s Hill, Sandys home yesterday afternoon.While the individual has not been formally identified, a Police Spokesman said that the man was in his early 20s.Officers reportedly responded to a report of a man found in an unresponsive state at around 12.26pm.“It appears that a resident of the house entered and found a male in a collapsed state,” the spokesman said.“An on call doctor attended the residence and pronounced the man dead at 1.15pm.“An investigation into the matter has commenced and foul play has not been ruled out.”Yesterday afternoon, officers from the forensics team were on the scene collecting evidence.The investigation is being led by Acting Inspector Berry from Somerset Police Station.Police are appealing for witnesses or anyone with any information about the incident to call 234-1010.The grim discovery came less than a day after the body of a 49-year-old man was found in a Southcote Road, Paget home.The spokesman said that there were no initial indications of foul play in the death, but that investigators had not ruled out the possibility.“A family member went to check on him and came across a lifeless body,” the spokesman said. The man was later certified dead by an on-call physician.
