Two arrested on suspicion of murder after death of 21-year-old Wolverhampton father
Two men have been arrested on suspicion of murder following the death of Wolverhampton father-of-one Josh Price in September.
Mr Price, aged 21, of Winston Churchill Court in Parkview Road, was found stabbed to death in Treynham Close, Stowlawn, on the night of September 27.
A 19-year-old man was arrested last night at an address in Bilston. This morning police swooped on another address in Bilston and arrested a 24-year-old man.
Both men are being held in custody at a police station in Wolverhampton. Their arrest follows information the police received during their investigation into the murder.
Mr Price was killed less than 200 yards from the flat he shared with his girlfriend and their one-year-old child.
A post-mortem revealed he had died from a single stab wound to the chest.
Deb Edmonds, spokeswoman for West Midlands Police, said officers still wanted people who may have information to come forward.
She said: "We have had a great response from the public and have now made two arrests. But it is important that people continue to contact us if they think they have any information that can help us, no matter how irrelevant they may think the information is."
Anyone with information can call police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
