A murder investigation has been launched following the death of a woman in Leeds.
At 7.43pm on Monday 21 May police received a call raising concerns for a man and woman living at an address in Berkeley Mount, Harehills.
Officers forced entry to the address and found a 55-year-old woman dead inside the property.
A 60-year-old man was arrested at the scene on suspicion of her murder.
The property was closed off and a scene put in place to undergo forensic examination.
Detective Chief Inspector Ian Scott, of West Yorkshire Police Homicide and Major Enquiry Team, said: “We believe this has been a domestic-related incident and we are not looking for anyone else in connection with the woman’s death, which we are treating as murder.
“We are carrying out enquiries to establish the full circumstances surrounding this incident and we would like to hear from anyone who has seen or heard anything at the property in the days leading up to when she was found or who has seen either of the couple during that period.”
