Man found dead at T in the Park music festival
A man has been found dead at the T in the Park music festival.
The 36-year-old's body was discovered on a campsite during the second day of the music event at Strathallan Castle estate in Perthshire.
The body is thought to have been discovered in toilets and his death is reportedly drugs related. Police confirmed they were looking into what was described as a 'medical incident' but added that the 36-year-old's death is being treated as unexplained. His family have been informed.
The event is taking place at the castle for the first time where 85,000 music fans are expected to converge over the weekend.
Police had earlier warned against anti-social behaviour and encouraged visitors to behave responsibly.
Superintendent Colin Brown said: "The vast majority of people have enjoyed themselves and taken our advice and behaved responsibly. However, a small number have ignored that advice and have been dealt with.
"Our advice is simple - look after yourselves and your friends, behave and have a good time."
Police Scotland has made 25 arrests since the festival got under way on Friday, while more than 240 people have been treated by paramedics.
Jessie J, Labrinth, The LaFontaines, Kasabian, David Guetta, Sam Smith and Mark Ronson are some of the high-profile guests performing.
Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, the Stereophonics and Ella Eyre are all due to perform on Sunday.
A report relating to the death will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.
