The boy was found "unwell" at a house on Geneva Avenue in Lincoln and died later, police said

A man arrested on suspicion of murder and a woman arrested on suspicion of manslaughter over a boy's death face no further action, police have said.

The 11-year-old boy was found "unwell" at a property in Geneva Avenue in Lincoln in January last year and died in hospital a short time later.

Lincolnshire Police said his death was not now being treated as suspicious.

The woman, 31, and the man, 33, were released following "a prolonged investigation", a spokesperson said.

A file was being prepared for the coroner, the spokesperson added.

"Our thoughts are with his family at this time," police said.
