Longridge mum's death still 'unexplained' say Lancashire Police as two men remain under police investigation
Two men arrested in connection with her death remain under investigation...
Police say the death of mum-of-two Hannah Fry remains ‘unexplained’ - more than three weeks after officers were called to her home in Longridge following a 999 call.
The 29-year-old became unwell at her home in Meadow Croft whilst officers were in attendance on the afternoon of July 13. She was taken to hospital and was sadly pronounced deceased.
Lancashire Police say her cause of death is still ‘unexplained’ and enquiries are ongoing. Two men, aged 31 and 23, were arrested in connection with her death and later released on bail. They remain under investigation.
The 31-year-old was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter and coercive and controlling behaviour.
The 23-year-old was arrested in relation to a suspected offence that prompted police to attend the home prior to Hannah’s death that afternoon.
Lancashire Police have not disclosed what the 23-year-old was arrested for and say they will not be releasing any further details at this stage of their investigation.
The force referred itself to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) over the incident which resulted in Hannah’s death.

Last week, Hannah’s parents Kevin and Sarah Harcup shared a heartbreaking tribute to their daughter.
They said: “Hannah was our beautiful and only daughter, the light of our lives and the love in our hearts and souls.
“She was a devoted mother to her two precious daughters, a cherished daughter, granddaughter, sister, and a loyal, loving friend to so many.
“At just 29 years old, Hannah's life was far too short. She was not only beautiful inside and out, but also funny, bubbly, witty, and full of life, with a fantastic personality.
“She will always be remembered for her madcap sense of humour, her infectious laugh, and her ability to light up every room she entered.
“Hannah had an extraordinary capacity for love, kindness, compassion, and loyalty. She was truly one of a kind, and there will never be another like her.
“She will be forever missed, not only by our family but by the countless people whose lives she touched.”
