Police granted more time to question man in connection with Full Sutton murder

DETECTIVES investigating the death of a North Yorkshire antiques dealer have been granted more time to question a 26-year-old Norton man.

Peter Battle, 56, was found dead at his home in Full Sutton, near Stamford Bridge last week, and Humberside Police said he may have been killed several weeks earlier.

The man, who police have not named, was arrested in Malton on Monday in connection with Mr Battle's death.

Last night, magistrates granted Humberside Police another 24 hours to question the man, who remains in police custody.
