A man (40s) whose body was found in a camper van on Sunday in Co Kilkenny may have died from carbon monoxide poisoning, it is believed.
Named locally as Gerry Kennedy, from Tikerlevan, Coppenagh, his body was found at midday on Sunday.
The father of five had been socialising in Thomastown on Saturday night and decided to sleep in his camper van there due to weather warnings advising people against driving due to forecasted snow and ice.
Mr Kennedy, who worked as a builder, parked his camper van in a car park and turned the engine on to keep warm due to the freezing temperatures. It is understood carbon monoxide may subsequently have seeped into the stationary vehicle.
