We have made three arrests as part of our investigation into a murder in Southampton.
Officers carried out warrants at two addresses in International Way at around 00.15am and an address in Bursledon Road at around 3.05am this morning (28 February).
The warrants were in connection to the death of a man in his 60s at his address in Warburton Road, Southampton in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Three men aged 20, 23 and 31, all from Southampton, were arrested on suspicion of murder.
They remain in police custody at this time while enquiries continue.
DCI Dal Andrews is leading the investigation. She said: “This is a fast moving investigation and our staff and officers are working around the clock to carry out their enquiries.
“We are still appealing for witnesses so please get in touch with any footage or information you might have. It could make all the difference to our investigation.”
Superintendent Philip Lamb, district commander for Southampton, said: “In Thornhill, officers continue to be on patrol and a mobile police station has been set up in Warburton Road.
“If you are in the local area and have any concerns please speak to us.”
