A man in his 30s has been arrested in connection with the incident and has been released on bail while enquiries continue.

Senior Investigating Officer DI Steve Menzies of the Major Investigation Team said yesterday: “We are naturally treating this as a homicide investigation and our thoughts are with the victim’s family at this difficult time.”

Police say there were two incidents involving the same people at the Terrace Bar that night.

Three men were asked to leave the bar at around 8.30pm with an altercation taking place outside, and then a further incident occurring just after 10pm, again outside the bar.

Police were called at 10.17pm by paramedics tending to Mr Pudsey.

He was critically injured, and died in hospital with his family at his bedside.

Detectives are appealing for witnesses to come forward – contact them on the numbers below.
