The victim was also known as Ziggy - of no fixed abode. A post-mortem gave cause of death as severe head injuries.

Detective Inspector Ian Foster said: "This was a violent assault which has led to the death of a man. It is made all the more tragic that the victim may have lain badly injured where he fell for several hours before anyone found him. During that night lots of people will have passed the scene and some of them may have seen something that could help us identify this man's assailants. We would urge anyone with information to contact us as soon as possible."
