Murder arrest after man dies following assault

A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after another man died following an assault outside a pub in Nottinghamshire.

Officers were called to the Market Inn, in Main Street, Huthwaite, at about 21:10 BST on Sunday.

A man in his 30s sustained serious injuries in the assault, which took place in a pub beer garden. He died in hospital on Tuesday.

Nottinghamshire Police said a 30-year-old man had been arrested and remained in custody.

Police have also arrested a 51-year-old woman on suspicion of assisting an offender, while a 31-year-old man - previously held on suspicion of affray - has been released with no further action.

Det Insp Matt Scott said: "I'd firstly like to pass on my sincere condolences to the victim's family and loved ones.

"They are currently being supported by specially-trained officers through what must be an incredibly distressing time.

"I'd once again ask that anyone who saw what happened, or has any relevant information, CCTV, doorbell, dashcam or phone footage, shares it with us, if they haven't done so yet.

"Every piece of information we receive, however small or insignificant it may initially seem, has the potential to be the evidence we need to solve a case."
