THREE men have been arrested after a man was found dead in his own home last month.

The body of Arthur Green was found by a family member in his home in Pleasantfield Road, Prestwick, South Ayrshire, on the morning of November 20.

The 60-year-old, who used a walking stick, was said to be well-known in the local community.

Police Scotland said three men aged 33, 34 and 44 have been detained in police custody in connection with the death.

A report has been sent to the procurator fiscal and the men are expected to appear at Ayr Sheriff Court on Monday.
