A HEARTBROKEN family has paid tribute to a young woman who died in a flat – seeing a man arrested on suspicion of murder.

Courtney Boorne, 20, has been named by her family as the woman who died after police raced to a Merseyside property following reports of a disturbance.


Courtney was found in a critical condition and rushed to hospital, where she sadly died.

Police are currently quizzing a 19-year-old man in custody on suspicion of murder.

The 20-year-old's family and friends say they have been left in "total disbelief" since losing Courtney on Friday, just days before Christmas.

A fundraising page has now been set up for them in the hopes of raising £5,000 for her funeral at this difficult time of year.
