Police have confirmed that they are treating the death of a Glasgow teacher as suspicious.
Cops were called to the home of Marelle Sturrock in Jura Street, Govan at around 8.40am on Tuesday.
The 35-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene.
We previously reported that her death is also being treated as linked to a search for a missing person in the Mugdock country park area.
The force has clarified that they are searching for a missing man.
Detective Chief Inspector Cheryl Kelly said: “Our thoughts are with Marelle’s family and friends, as well as everyone affected by this tragic incident.
“We are providing her family with support at this incredibly difficult time as our investigation to establish the full circumstances continues.”
The force has said that there will be a heavy police presence both at Jura Street and near Mugdock Park while enquiries continue.
Detective Chief Inspector Kelly added: “A visible police presence will remain at both locations as our work continues.
“There is not believed to be any risk to the wider public but I would urge anyone with information or concerns to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident 0904 of 25 April or speak to any of our officers.”
We previously reported that families at the school Marelle worked at were sent letters informing them of her sudden death.
