A murder probe in Ayr has entered its third day as cops scanned nearby CCTV for clues.
Detectives are still investigating the death of a woman, named yesterday as Susan Turner, after her body was found inside a block of flats on Nursery Hall on Monday.
Police confirmed the identity of the 41-year-old victim who was killed inside the property in the Whitletts area of the town.
