Officers gave the man CPR while an ambulance was sent to the property but, despite their best efforts, he tragically passed away at the scene.
The man’s family have been informed and are being supported by specialist officers.
Four men have since been arrested in connection with the tragedy as cops launch a manslaughter probe.
A significant police presence remains in the area as the investigation into the death continues.
