A second man has been arrested in connection with the death of William 'Billy' Carney on Saturday.

A 42-year-old was arrested yesterday morning (Thursday 1 December) on suspicion of assault and assisting an offender. He is currently in police custody.

The arrest is in connection with an investigation into the death of Mr Carney, who died at Warwick Hospital at the weekend following an incident at the Blue Boar Inn in Temple Grafton on 24 November.

Mark Stevens, 29, of School Road, Dursley, has already been charged with manslaughter following the incident.

Warwickshire Police continue to appeal for witnesses.

If anyone has any information in relation to the incident, call Warwickshire Police on 101, quoting incident number 300 of 24 November 2022.

Information can also be given anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via the website.
