Police believe this man may have witnessed the incident

Detectives want to trace a man with a walking stick who they believe is a potential witness.

CCTV footage of him in the area at the time of the incident has been released.

They have also made a fresh appeal for other witnesses to come forward.

Det Ch Insp Mark Oliver said: "Humberside Police are also keen to speak to anyone who may have spoken to somebody involved in the incident after it happened.

"We believe those involved may have bragged about what they have done and not known that Mr Ullah had died when they did so."

Four men questioned in connection with the death remain on police bail.
