The tragic discovery was made at a home on Lochend Path in Easterhouse, Glasgow.
Officers confirmed that a 52-year-old man was found dead at the scene in the east-end area of the city.
The force said his death is currently being treated as unexplained and enquiries are ongoing.
According to Glasgow Live, forensic officers have been seen scouring the area for hours today.
A large police presence has been spotted on the road with around five police motors parked on the street.
CID and forensic officers were also seen in the area as a block of flats was sealed off.
Officers cordoned off the tower block as they carried out their investigations.
A local also told Glasgow Live that the force was carrying out “door-to-door inquiries”.
It is understood that formal identification is still to be carried out.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 5.05am on Sunday, 23 February, 2025, we were called to address in Lochend Path, Easterhouse following the sudden death of a 52-year-old man.

The on-loan Manchester United forward broke away after beating two men for paceAntony took his team down the field before cutting inside onto his left footThe Brazilian found Isco in the box, who bundled into the bottom corner
Antony joined the Spanish side last month on loan from the Red Devils.
The £85million flop infamously left Old Trafford after clocking up more yellow cards than goals over the past three seasons.
But he looks like a player reborn under Manuel Pelligrini at Betis.
Antony has netted three times since heading to Spain on loan, bagging three Player of the Match awards in the process.
And he turned provider for pal Isco during Sunday’s contest at Getafe’s Coliseum.
Antony picked up the ball well inside his own half, beating two men for pace as he burst forward.
The Brazilian cut back onto his left foot, before finding Isco in the box with a perfect pass.
Former Real Madrid star Isco did the rest, giving Antony his second assist since leaving Old Trafford.

One Man Utd fan raged: “This is getting out of hand, Antony is actually cooking in La Liga.”
Another said: “Antony deserves an apology. My man is on fire. POTM for sure atm.”
While a third claimed: “Something must be in the waters in Old Trafford.”
And a fourth joked: “Love the look of this Antony, we should sign him!”
But they fought back late on thanks to a stunning Bruno Fernandes free-kick and volley from Manuel Ugarte, who bagged his first goal since his summer arrival from PSG.
Amorim’s men were then lucky to escape a penalty in the final moments after VAR overturned the decision.
SunSport’s Ken Lawrence has given his ratings of the Manchester United team…
Andre Onana – 7
United needed him with his game-head on, and his 93rd-minute stop saved a point.
Noussair Mazraoui 69′ – 4
Looked seriously uncomfortable on the right side of the back three – forced there because of a defensive injury crisis
Harry Maguire – 4
Out-jumped by Doucoure as the midfielder grabbed Everton’s second and was generally all over the place.
Matthijs de Ligt – 4
Nowhere for Beto’s opener, completely missing attempted clearance and got away with a 93rd-minute penalty call.
Diogo Dalot – 5
At least shows willing. Which is more than could be said for some of his team mates at Goodison.
Manuel Ugarte – 7
Spent most of the game stranded in United’s midfield morass but salvation came with a brilliant strike.
Casemiro 62′ – 2
The Brazilian is beginning to look like the world’s oldest 32-year-old —he’s become a genuine irrelevance.
Patrick Dorgu – 6
Made a determined start down the left flank but that enthusiasm was slowly but surely sucked out of him.
Bruno Fernandes – 8
His free kick was genuine class and once he was dropped deeper started controlling the game.
Joshua Zirkzee – 4
At £36.5M you would expect an element of ball control but the Dutchman used as a joint No 10 just looks lost.
Rasmus Hojlund 69′ – 3
Not so much a desperate Dane, more a despairing one although it would help if he had some support.
Subs:
Alejandro Garnacho 62′ – 7
Injected some desperately needed pace and passion.
Leny Yoro 69′ – 6
Should have been on much earlier.
Chido Obi-Martin 69′ – 5
The 17-year-old has a presence for sure.
Antony told AS: “I’ve had a great time in Manchester too, I won two titles and I’m very grateful.
“But when I say that I’ve found myself here, I’m happy, the people are like us in Brazil. The sun helps a lot.
“I’m very happy here. I wake up every day with a smile and that’s very important.
“I have a lot of friends who played here and they left me very calm so that I could sign here.
“I was sure in my heart that coming here was the best decision for me. I hope to continue like this.”

A TEENAGER plunged 50ft to his death while hopping over rooftops at a construction site after a night out.
Harry Calam and his two friends jumped over a fence at a construction site and scaled a scaffolding tower in Daveygate, York, on June 24.

The 19-year-old and his pals wanted to reach a rooftop above a row of retail units so they could look down at the bar where he worked.
An inquest heard Harry, who loved adventure according to his devastated mum, had been moving from one roof to another as the pals tried to get a “cool view”.
But then tragedy struck as Harry fell off one ledge wrongly thinking there was a lower rooftop below.
Harry and two friends he worked with, along with others from neighbouring bars, had gone out for drinks in York after finishing work on the night of June 23 last year.
After finishing their final drinks at 4am, the group were chatting at a nearby McDonald’s.
As they left, Alfred Miller, who had worked with Harry for nine months prior to his death, went to a construction fence in the Daveygate area to urinate.
He mentioned he had already climbed the fence and walked up the scaffolding to a shared roof above some retailers.
Alfred encouraged Harry and the other friend to join him to observe the view, the court heard.
The friend climbed over the fence into the construction site and Harry followed him, while the other friend stayed in the street.
The pair climbed up to the roof of the building then called for the other man to join them, which he did.
The roof area was large with parts at different heights and the three lads began “hopping” between the levels on the hot dry night, North Allerton Coroner’s Court heard.
After about 15 minutes, the two other friends walked across the roof to see if they could look at their workplace, Kennedy’s Bar and Restaurant, down below in Little Stonegate.
They looked back to see Harry swing his legs over a ledge and drop to what he thought was the floor beneath.
“Unfortunately, the roof level was not there, and Harry fell to the ground below,” Coroner Alison Norton said.
The two friends walked to the edge of the roof and were horrified to see Mr Calam lying motionless below.
They rushed down to their friend, who was not moving, and dialled 999.
But despite their desperate attempts to revive him Harry had suffered devastating brain injuries and was pronounced dead at 4.40am.
Tests revealed Harry was twice the legal drink drive limit, the court heard.
TRAGIC DEATH
Assistant Coroner Alison Norton recorded a conclusion of death by misadventure.
In a statement read to the inquest his mother, Eileen Calam, said her son had a love of the outdoors and adventure.
She said he had been “very happy” and was enjoying making new friends.
A statement from Det Sgt Dodson said police had investigated the health and safety of the construction site.
He said the scaffolding tower had been a solid structure with a staircase, the entrance had been fenced off from the public with clear signage and there were appropriate safety railings on the part of the roof being worked on.
Dt Sgt Dodson found there had been “no suspicious circumstances or third party involvement”.

DANIEL STURRIDGE made an embarrassing gaffe on pundit duty for Sky Sports.
The former Man City and Liverpool star was on duty at the Etihad for Super Sunday, as his ex-clubs faced off against each other.

GettySturridge called on City to introduce Haaland into the game who wasn’t even fit to play[/caption]
City trailed at the break 2-0, as presenter David Jones asked if he could see them getting back into the game.
He said: “They’ve been prying away and giving themselves opportunities.
“But when they’re getting crosses in the box, there’s not that presence in the box to get on the end of it.
“So, we might end up seeing Haaland at some stage in the game.”
Norwegian hotshot Erling Haaland – who Sturridge referred to – was deemed unfit to be included in City’s squad before the clash.
That prompted Sky Sports presenter David Jones to interrupt.
Jones said: “Not Haaland today because he’s, of course, missing. But maybe there might be one or two options they can turn to.”
Sturridge is used to getting some attention on punditry duty for Sky Sports.
On his debut in 2023, he showed his flamboyant side by singing an initiation song alongside Micah Richards and Roy Keane.
While back in August last year, he suffered a wardrobe malfunction when one of the buttons on a shirt had broken.
