A man arrested following the death of a worker at Ipswich docks has been bailed.

Suffolk police arrested a 47-year-old man from Clacton yesterday morning on suspicion of involuntary manslaughter following the death of 52-year-old Neville Wightman.

Mr Wightman, who was from the Ipswich area, was crushed by a section of pontoon on Friday. A man in his 40s from Lowestoft was also injured in the incident and remains in a serious condition in hospital.

A police spokesman said last night the arrested man has now been released on bail and is due to return to the Martlesham investigation centre on Tuesday, March 6.
