The latest appeal comes after police issued another CCTV image of a potential eyewitness a little earlier this afternoon.

Mr Richardson died in hospital after being assaulted outside the Halifax Bank in Old Market Place on Monday evening.

Det Ch Insp Stewart Miller says: "There’s no suggestion that these people were involved in the incident that led to Mr Richardson’s death.

"However, they were in the area shortly before it happened and may be able to provide us with vital information, so we would be very grateful if they could get in touch," he says.

This is the moment a taxi driver and transgender rights campaigner won £4m on a Lottery scratchcard.

Melissa Ede (pictured), 57, from Hull, bought the winning card when she stopped for petrol on her way to work on Saturday evening.

The National Lottery released the phone call today:

Miss Ede has thousands of followers on social media.

She said she had since quit her job, making it the first time in 25 years she had not worked over New Year.

A teenager from Grimsby who threatened to throw a toddler out of a window has been sent to a young offenders' institution after his original sentence was referred to the Court of Appeal.

Joshua Ingram, 18, was originally given a suspended sentence after admitting making threats to kill, assault and criminal damage.

The offences related to an incident at his ex-girlfriend's former home.

The case was referred to the Court of Appeal by the Solicitor General Robert Buckland QC MP.

The court said the original sentence was "unduly lenient" and said he must be detained for three years.

Just 12 sites have been selected for the list by Europa Nostra, external, which described itself as "the voice of cultural heritage in Europe", and the Grade II*-listed Ice Factory is the only UK building on the list.

The factory was built in 1900 to provide crushed ice for Grimsby's trawlers, to keep fish fresh in the ship's hold.

Other threatened buildings and sites include the historic centre of Vienna, the Castle of Sammezzano in Tuscany, Italy, and post-Byzantine churches in Albania.

Henrietta Billings, the director of SAVE Britain's Heritage, says she's "delighted the importance of Grimsby's fishing heritage has been recognised on the European stage":

Mr Richardson, from Grimsby, died in hospital after being assaulted outside the Halifax Bank in Old Market Place on Monday evening.

Police are continuing to appeal for witnesses to come forward, especially anyone who can identify a man officers want to speak to in connection with the attack.

The man is described as white, aged 20-45, with dark-rimmed glasses. He wore a beige or grey waist length jacket with a peaked hood. He was also wearing dark trousers and grey or brown trainers.

Det Ch Insp Stewart Miller says: "We are investigating a number of new lines of enquiry and want to thank the public for the response by them in coming forward with information."

Problems with professional beggars on the streets of Cleethorpes are expected to be raised in the Commons today.

A recent report by North East Lincolnshire Council found that 16 people beg on the streets there, despite having a home.

The town's, MP Martin Vickers, says recently there was a "rising problem" with beggars in Grimsby and the council there had come under pressure from traders to do something.

"Unfortunately, that's moved the problem to the Cleethorpes. It's been much more noticeable in recent months and it's an issue that's causing concern both to shopkeepers and to shoppers," says Mr Vickers.
