A HUNT is still underway to find a final person pictured in CCTV footage near to where a man was stabbed to death.

"We are making good progress with the investigation but it’s really important we’re able to identify everyone in the area that night and speak to them.

"If you were in the park, or know someone who was, please come forward."
