A third person has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a man who was hit by a car on Christmas Day died.

Kirk Marsden, 37, was injured outside The Gate bar on the corner of Moorgate Street, Blackburn, just after 16:45 GMT on Wednesday following reports of a row, Lancashire Constabulary said.

The force said a 26-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder on Saturday evening, with a 58-year-old man of no fixed address and a 35-year-old man from Blackburn having also been arrested on suspicion of murder.

Mr Marsden’s family said he was “a well-loved son, brother and uncle who will be sorely missed”, adding: “Rest with your dad now in heaven.”
