Police are once again appealing for information into the death of Peter Lynch, a month after his passing.

Police were called just after 11.50pm on Wednesday 19 June to reports of a serious assault in Walden End, Stevenage.

The East of England Ambulance Service attended and Mr Lynch was taken to hospital with suspected stab wounds and died a short time later.

A 34-year-old woman, who was known to the victim, was arrested on suspicion of murder. She has since been released on police bail.

An investigation was launched by the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit who have been carrying out extensive enquiries.

Detective Inspector Lee Martin, who is investigating, said: "It is nearly a month on since Peter sadly died. We have conducted a number of lines of enquiry including reviewing CCTV footage and house-to-house enquiries.

"I'd like to thank local residents and members of the public who have assisted us with our investigation so far.

"Officers will be in the Walden End area this evening (Wednesday 17 July) from around 9pm should residents like to speak with them regarding the incident. I would encourage anyone who is yet to speak to police and may have information that could help with our enquiries, to please make contact with our officers.
