South Yorkshire Police have re-arrested four people in connection with an ongoing murder investigation.

Emergency services were called to Knoll Close, Stocksbridge, at 8.36pm on Saturday 12 April after reports of a disturbance. Lee Wesson, 34, was taken to hospital with critical injuries and died several days.

In the days following the incident, a 35-year-old woman and two men, aged 30 and 37, were arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. Another 30-year-old man was detained on suspicion of attempted murder and perverting the course of justice. All four were initially released on bail.

As the inquiry has developed, officers have now re-arrested the same individuals — this time on suspicion of murder. All have now been re-bailed as the investigation continues

Police continue to appeal for any witnesses or relevant information.

Detective Inspector Adam Watkinson said the investigation into Mr Wesson’s death was continuing “at pace”.

“We continue to ask for any witnesses who may have seen the events that evening to come forward. Any information, no matter how small, could help our investigation.”
