A fundraiser has been launched to cover the funeral costs of Kathleen Carey, who died after falling from an upper-floor balcony in Dublin on Monday.
Kathleen, who was in her mid-30s, was discovered with serious injuries outside a block of apartments on Main Street in Belmayne on Monday afternoon.
While the original emergency call received by gardaí said the woman had “jumped” from an upper-floor balcony, they are investigating all possibilities, including whether she fell accidentally or was deliberately pushed.
There were a number of people in the apartment at the time of the incident.
A man in his 20s was arrested on Tuesday in connection with the investigation but has since been released without charge.
