Police issue warning after 'Rockstar' drug death riddle

Police have reissued a warning about the dangers of new lethal substances after a man was found dead.

It comes after seven people were treated in hospital last week after taking "Rockstar", red or yellow coloured tablets being sold as ecstasy, circulating in the Lanarkshire area.

A 35-year-old man was found dead in a flat in Newlands Drive, Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, at about 7.50pm on Sunday.
