Two men have been arrested in connection with the murder of a 20-year-old man in Cambridge on Thursday night.
The arrests come after a public appeal by detectives investigating the fatal assault, which took place in Mill Park late on 1 August.
Police were called to reports of violence at 11:27pm. Despite the efforts of emergency services, the victim was pronounced dead just after midnight at 12:01am.
A 21-year-old man from Cambridge has been arrested on suspicion of murder. A second man, aged 50 and also from Cambridge, has been arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender. Both remain in custody at Thorpe Wood Police Station.
Detective Inspector Dale Mepstead, from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit, said: “We would like to thank the public for their support and assistance following our appeal. The investigation remains ongoing, and we continue to urge anyone with information who has not yet come forward to contact us.”
