Two more men have been arrested on suspicion of murder in relation to the fatal stabbing of a man in Bradford.
Luqman Ishfaq, 23, was found with stab wounds on Barlow Street in Barkerend on Monday 21 October after what police said was an "incident of violent disorder" and he died later in hospital.
A 27-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder last Friday and later bailed, while a man, 22, was arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of murder and remained in police custody, according to West Yorkshire Police.
In total, nine men have been arrested on suspicion of murder as part of the investigation into Mr Ishfaq's death, while another man was arrested over violent disorder.
Other than the 22-year-old man held on Wednesday, all those arrested had since been bailed, officers said.
A West Yorkshire Police spokesperson said "a number" of inquiries were continuing into the circumstances surrounding the death of Mr Ishfaq.
Police had earlier said that he was one of four people who had fled a VW Golf involved in the disorder and were chased by a group armed with weapons.
"We very much continue to appeal for witnesses and information from residents," the force spokesperson added.
