A MAN has been arrested after a woman was found dead at univeristy accommodation in Newcastle.
The 18-year-old was found unconscious yesterday morning, police in Northumbria revealed, with an 18-year-old man taken into custody.
Police said their officers were called out by paramedics shortly after 6am on Saturday.
The teenager was later pronounced dead at the scene.
A Police Northumbria spokesperson said in a statment: "At 6.06am yesterday (Saturday) police received a report via the ambulance service of an unresponsive woman at an address on Richardson Road in Newcastle.
"Emergency services attended where sadly the woman - aged 18 - was pronounced dead at the scene.
"Enquiries into the circumstances around her death are ongoing. Her next of kin have been informed and are being supported by officers at this time.
'"An 18-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the incident and is currently on police bail while the investigation continues.
"The investigation is at an early stage but this is not believed to be Covid-19 related death."
Emergency crews were called to a home on the same road as Newcastle University's Park View student village yesterday.
A Newcastle University spokesperson said: "We are shocked and saddened to learn of the death of one of our students and our welfare teams are offering support to those affected.
"This is not Covid-related and as this is an active police investigation, we are unable to provide further comment at this time."
Park View is a £75 million development which provides self-catered accommodation across six residential buildings.
On Friday, we reported how hundreds of students had tested positive for coronavirus at nearby Northumbria University - days after youngsters were pictured breaking the rule of six.
Around 770 people are infected with the virus at the uni - although just ten per cent are showing Covid symptoms
