A man arrested over the murder of a mother-of-two in Derry is currently unfit to be questioned, the PSNI has said.

Police launched a murder investigation after officers were called to a property in the Summer Meadows Mews area of the city on Saturday and found 28-year-old Amy Doherty badly injured.

Doherty was taken to hospital where she later died.

A 30-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder.

The PSNI has confirmed the man is receiving medical treatment and is not fit for police interview.
