The family of an 34-year-old man who died while working at a property have described him as "lighting up any room he entered, and would do anything for anyone".

Ryan Roberts was injured while working in the Llangwm area, near Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, on Friday 12 September. He was taken to hospital, but died.

In a statement, his family said they were "deeply saddened by his death and will forever love and miss him".

"Ryan was the best partner, dad, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin and friend anyone could ever wish for," they added.

"Ryan was a family man, his dog T boy was never far from his side, he loved Liverpool football club and had a real passion for his work. He had pure talent.

"Ryan was a genuine, loving, caring, funny, hardworking and loyal character. He could light up any room he entered, he would do anything for anyone and was loved by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him."

They added his "cherished partner Kirsty and two beautiful daughters Jaida and Talia are absolutely devastated by his sudden passing".

Dyfed-Powys Police officers are working with the Health and Safety Executive to investigate the circumstances of his death.

A 60-year-old man had been arrested on suspicion of gross negligent manslaughter, and was subsequently released under investigation pending further enquiries.

A 64-year-old man was also voluntary interviewed in connection with the incident.
