Tayside Police said a report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal, as with all sudden deaths in Scotland, though it is understood to have been treated by officers as a tragic 
accident.

Neighbour Alan Ross, an SNP councillor for Lochee, who lives directly below the Alexander family’s flat in the three-storey building on Denhead Crescent, said on Friday that everyone in the area had been “devastated” by what happened.
