Police presence on Melbourne Place

[amac]

Does anyone know why the police have been camped outside a house on Melbourne Place for the last 3 days? It all seems a bit odd...

[Raindance]

I've been wondering this too. I know it's a bit much to of a stretch but might this have something to do with a 'Body Found in St Andrews' headline a friend of mine saw on some local rag yesterday?

Not any more it ain't!

...then again, that is only my opinion.

[orudge]

According to a taxi driver I spoke to yesterday, a man was found dead there on Sunday. Can't say I know any more specifics than that, the Courier may have more.

Heard off someone today it might have been a suicide, hence the police/CID presence.Just out of interest, does anyone know when the last murder in St Andrews town was, and the circumstances?

"On the evening of the 24th of June 1991, the body of Sandy Drummond was discovered on a farm track less than 200 yards from the house he shared with his brother in the hamlet of Boarhills, near St Andrews in north east Fife. Officially it took police eight months to acknowledge that the loner, who kept himself to himself, had been murdered."

I saw them hanging around outside the castle as well.

Nope. St Andrews Police - 100% failure record in murder cases. They have a lot of other things to see to, in fairness...

Well that's not very appropriate, despite what you may think of the person who is now dead, I find that in very poor taste!

Not necessarily what I think, but it was names I had heard him called by.

Those do sound like identifier names rather'n personal opinions. Pub names, if you will.

Shame he died, walked past twice today and there were police hanging around. They had someone taking a vent off the (unused?) building a little further down the hill.

I should be a PI/reporter...

"There is only ever one truth. Things are always black or white, there's no such thing as a shade of grey. If you think that something is a shade of grey it simply means that you don't fully understand the situation. The truth is narrow and the path of the pursuit of truth is similarly narrow."
Also, some years later:
"here we are arguing about a few uppity troublemakers with a bee in their bonnet and a conspiracy theory."

But if he hadn't died, you'd have nothing to report on. perhaps what you mean is 'shame I'm not a PI/reporter...'
