Police given more time to question murder suspects
Detectives investigating the fatal stabbing of a 19-year-old man have been given more time to question three suspects.
Norfolk Police were called to the ground floor flat on Lefroy Road in the Mile Cross area of Norwich at 22:40 BST on Saturday following concerns a man had been attacked.
Five arrests have been made in connection with the incident, the force said.
Following an application to Norwich Magistrates Court, officers have been granted more time to question a man and woman in their 50s and a man in his 20s.
A post-mortem examination found the 19-year-old man from London died from a stab wound to the chest and officers believe his body was in the flat for about eight days before police were alerted.
On Wednesday the police arrested a man and woman in their 50s on suspicion of conspiracy to murder.
Overnight Wednesday and into Thursday morning police made a further three arrests, including a man in his 20s, who was arrested on suspicion of murder and supplying controlled drugs, and a man in his late teens and a man in his 50s on suspicion of conspiracy to murder.
All five suspects continue to be questioned by police.
