Tests on student's body inconclusive

INITIAL tests carried out on a 23-year-old student found dead in England have proved inconclusive.

Police are treating the death of Newcastle University student James Steen, from Poyntzpass, as "unexplained".

The body of Mr Steen, right, was found at a house in Wood Street, Rugby, Warwickshire on Saturday.

Three men from Rugby, aged 31, 29 and 25, were arrested on Saturday morning and later released on bail.

Mr Steen's parents said earlier this week that he had "enriched our lives and the lives of others in so many ways".
