A MAN will appear in court on Monday charged with the death of Jennifer Morgan who was found dead outside her Kirkintilloch home.

The 39-year-old has now been charged with police following arrest on Thursday.

It comes after Jennifer was found dead in the town in Wednesday.

Loving mother Jennifer, 33, was discovered by her daughter, 11, in a pool of blood when she returned home from school.

A police investigation was launched into the death of the young mother who was found outside her property in Waterside's Alexander Place.

Police Scotland, however, said today that a man has been charged and he will appear in court on Monday.

A spokesman said: "Police Scotland can confirm a 39-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with the death of 33 year old Jennifer Morgan.

"The man is due before Glasgow Sheriff Court on Monday April 23.

"A report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal."
