Detectives investigating a suspected holiday park murder believe video shot on mobile phones could help them crack the case.
Michael McDonagh died at the Parkdean resort at Camber Sands in August after an altercation which reportedly took place during a screening of a match between Arsenal and Crystal Palace.
The 53-year-old, who was from London, was pronounced dead at the scene in Lydd Road shortly after midnight on August 6.
Seven people were subsequently arrested on suspicion of his murder and have since been released under investigation while enquiries continue.
Now Sussex Police has launched a fresh appeal for information which could help with their investigation.
A police spokesman said: "Detectives are particularly keen to speak to people who may have recorded the incident on mobile devices.
"At least one man, described as short and thin by witnesses, is believed to have recorded the incident from start to finish.
"At least one man is believed to have recorded the incident from start to finish..."
"We would encourage this person to come forward or if anybody knows who this person is to make contact with the investigation team.
"Anybody with footage, images or information that could help with the investigation is asked to contact police online or via 101, quoting Operation Molton."
Mr McDonagh had been at the park with his wife and children for a family holiday when the incident happened.
One of his children said that the family was left with "broken hearts and unanswered questions" following his death.
