Four arrested on suspicion of murder after man dies in resort incident

The 39-year-old victim was found unconscious after suffering a life-threatening wound at the address on Sewerby Road in the resort in the early hours of yesterday.

He died at the scene despite the efforts of paramedics.

Officers were sent to look for a car seen leaving the address and it was stopped with four men inside at Seaton, near Hornsea, shortly after 5am.

Four men, including a 22-year-old, 27-year-old and a 37-year-old, were arrested on suspicion of murder and remain in police custody.

The fourth man, 47, was receiving treatment at Hull Royal Infirmary yesterday for injuries sustained.

Officers sought to reassure residents that the disturbance was confined to the address in Sewerby Road and said they 
were not looking for anyone 
else in connection with the incident.

Specially trained officers are supporting the victim’s family.

A post-mortem examination was due to take place later yesterday.

Police said they had a number of witnesses to the disturbance, but are appealing for anyone else who can help to contact them on 101.
