The bodies of a 37-year-old woman and two children have been found at a house in Dublin.
Gardaí were called to a house in the Llewellyn estate in Ballinteer this morning following reports from concerned neighbours.
Officers found the bodies of a woman - believed to be a mother - and two children, an 11-year-old girl and a six-year-old boy.
Gardaí remain at the scene. The State Pathologist has been notified.
Gardaí have begun an investigation into the circumstances of the deaths.
A Garda spokesman said: "Investigating gardaí are aware of comments circulating on some social media platforms. These comments are uninformed and unhelpful to the criminal investigation. An Garda Síochána appeals to members of the public not to circulate this social media speculation."
