Two women have been questioned over the death of a 21-year-old man in flats off Sturry Road, Canterbury, in the early hours of Saturday morning.

The 22-year-old and 23-year-old women were arrested shortly after the incident in Tennyson House, Tennyson Road, at 3.45am.

One has been released without charge and the other is on bail until August.

Forensic investigators and detectives spent most of the weekend at the flats, which have been sealed off.

The victim - who has not yet been formally identified, but has been named locally as former Archbishop's School pupil Andrew Wilbey - died from a single stab wound to the back.

The incident took place less than a half a mile from the spot where Luke Brocklebank was knifed to death in April.

Police are appealing for any one who may have seen anything to contact them.
