The family of a man who died following an incident in Manchester have said he will be missed ‘dearly’.
A man aged 59, was sadly found deceased at the property on Astbury Avenue late on Sunday night and can now be named as William Riddell.
A spokesperson for his family said: “Billy was a good man and he was nice to everyone. His friends in the community are devastated by his loss. His step-grandchildren will miss him dearly.”
A 47-year-old man arrested on suspicion of murder has been bailed pending further enquiries.
Detective Chief Inspector Mark Davis, from GMP’s Major Incident Team, said: “Our investigation into William’s death is continuing at pace, and my team is working hard to comprehensively review all lines of enquiry and establish the full facts of this incident.
“I would like to reiterate my earlier appeal for information, as even the smallest amount could greatly assist our investigation.”
