“We, as a family, ask that you continue to support each other through this and respect the time we need to be together; to mourn our beautiful son, brother and uncle.” Police say they are reviewing CCTV but urged anyone who may have seen what happened or may have dashcam footage of the incident to get in touch via 101 quoting log 3637 of 8/7/24.We want our comments to be a lively and valuable part of our community - a place where readers can debate and engage with the most important local issues.
