A man has been arrested on suspicion of the murder of a man who died more than a year after being attacked.

Mark Robinson, 40, suffered a head injury when he was assaulted in Station Road, Redcar, on 28 July 2020. He died on 5 August.

Cleveland Police said a 23-year-old man has now been arrested on suspicion of murder and bailed.

A 33-year-old man was arrested last year on suspicion of assault and remains under investigation.

Det Supt Helen Barker, who is leading the murder investigation, said: "Mark's caring family have been devastated by his death and I am appealing on their behalf for anyone with information to speak to us."

A statement from Mr Robinson's family said: "Mark was a much-loved son, brother and uncle and treasured by our whole family.

"We cannot describe how difficult the past year has been and we are all devastated by Mark's death."
