West Mercia Police are appealing for another potential witness to come forward as they continue to investigate the death of Ian Kirwan in Redditch.

Ian Kirwan was attacked outside Asda on Jinnah Road around 8pm on Tuesday 8th March.

Two teenagers, aged 14 and 15, have been charged with Ian’s murder.

Officers say further CCTV analysis has identified another man they believe may have information that could assist enquiries.

The man is white, with a tattoo on the left side of his neck.

He was wearing a grey and black North Face hooded top, black jogging trousers and a black baseball cap.

Officers have CCTV images of the man that may be released if he cannot be initially identified.

Anyone that has any information that could help identify him is asked to please get in touch the West Mercia Police force.
