Wrexham man wanted for murder arrested in Flint overnight
Following the arrest of a 25-year-old Wrexham man for the murder of Nicholas Anthony Churton, police are renewing their appeal for information to assist their investigation.
Officers were called at 8.23am on Monday March 27 to an address in Crescent Close, Wrexham where the body of Mr Churton, aged 67 was found.
Suspect, Jordan James Lee Davidson, 25 was arrested in Flint in the early hours of March 29th. He is currently in custody in St Asaph.
Det Supt Iestyn Davies, who is leading the investigation said: “Mr Churton who lived alone and was a vulnerable, partially disabled man, died in horrific circumstances.
“I would like to thank the people of Wrexham for their support so far, and I am now appealing again for as much information as we can get from the public to help us with our investigation.
“It is my belief that Mr Churton was killed sometime between 2.45pm on Thursday and midnight on Friday March 24. I am particularly keen to hear from anyone who heard or witnessed a disturbance in Crescent Close in that time.”
Meanwhile a 35-year-old man and a 27-year-old woman, both from Old Colwyn, arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender have been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
A 27-year-old man from Wrexham arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender remains in police custody.
A 19-year-old woman and 51-year old man from Wrexham arrested along with Davidson in Flint remain in custody on suspicion of a robbery committed against a man in the Chester area last night, for which Davidson has also been arrested.
