Witnesses sought in murder hunt

Police say it is vital to trace Mr Hickingbotham's last movements

Police are trying to piece together the last movements of a 37-year-old man who was found collapsed in a Hull garden.

Peter Hickingbotham was found in Redmire Close on 4 August and died as a result of his multiple injuries.

Officers believe he may have walked into the city centre and want to hear from anyone who saw him that afternoon.

Det Supt Richard Kerman said: "It is important to the investigation to determine exactly what Peter did during the hours before his death."

Mr Hickingbotham, of Deerhurst Close in Hull, may have caught a number 32 bus to the Bransholme area and would have got off near to Perronet Thompson School.

At 1600 BST he was seen at shops on Grampian Way and was wearing a navy blue fleece and black tracksuit and trainers.
