Police investigating a murder on Christmas Eve are making a renewed appeal for information from anyone who was in the area on Wednesday 17th December to get in touch with them.
The body of Thomas Downey, 51, was found under a railway arch on the Lower Bristol Road, near Bath railway station.
Now detectives want to hear from anyone who was walking or driving along the road there at around 10.45am on the 17th and who may have seen two men crossing over from the Esso garage side to the river side.
Although there is a pedestrian traffic light crossing, the men did not use it.
One was carrying a weightlifting barbell and the other had a guitar on his back.
Officers also want to hear from anyone who may have witnessed a disturbance between a group of people in the alleyway by Angel Place on the Lower Bristol Road at around 6pm the day before, 16th December.
The road is usually busy with pedestrians, cyclists and motorists.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Murder Crime Investigation Team on 101 quoting Operation Nightingale.

Darrell Richards, 46, of no fixed address has been charged with Mr Downey’s murder.
