9th September 2022Hull: Hessle Road murder investigation CCTV image released
Extensive enquiries have continued throughout the weekend in relation to the fatal stabbing of Jason Whincup on Hessle Road, Hull, on Wednesday 31 August 2022.
Taking over the investigation as Senior Investigating Officer (SIO) is Detective Chief Inspector Nicole Elliott who is now appealing for help to identify a man who they believe may have information that could help with enquires.
She said, “Over the weekend hundreds of hours of CCTV footage has been reviewed and we have one image of a cyclist we would like help in identifying.
“If you know who this man is please get in touch with us.
“I can update that the three men arrested for the circumstances surrounding the incident have now been released from custody. One man has been released without further action, the other two released under investigation in relation to an incident prior to the murder.
“Following our recent appeals, we have been provided with very helpful information from the public. As a result of this a fourth man has been arrested in connection with the circumstances surrounding the murder.
“But we still need help from the public, firstly to identify the man shown on the CCTV image, but also from anyone who has any information, no matter how small, that might assist with our enquiries.
“There continues to be a heavy police presence in the area of Pickering Park where searches of the water continue. If anyone has any concerns, then please talk to our officers at the scene.”
Anyone with information that could identify the man shown or with any other information in relation to the investigation should call our non-emergency number 101 quoting log 86 of 31 August 2022.
