A 30-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter after another man died in a "tragic incident" when he became trapped under his vehicle.

Fire crews attended and the man was pronounced dead at the scene.

The arrested man, from the town, remains in custody.

"We have already conducted extensive inquiries, but would now like to appeal to anyone who may have information that has not yet been in contact with us to please get in touch.

"I would particularly like to hear from anyone who may have seen a man on a bicycle in the area around the time."

The dead man's family was being supported by specially trained officers.
