A 13-year-old boy arrested over the death of a promising young Brighton footballer has been bailed.

Connor Saunders, 19, is believed to have received a forceful punch during an argument between two groups of people near Tesco in West Street, Rottingdean.

Police believe the incident took place between 10.30 and 10.55pm on Saturday.

Three teenagers were arrested on suspicion of murder after Mr Saunders, of Downsway, Woodingdean, Brighton, was taken to the Royal Sussex County Hospital, Brighton, but died yesterday morning.

Police said two 14-year-old boys remain in custody today on suspicion of murder.

They added a 13-year-old boy, who was also arrested on suspicion of murder, has been released on bail until 8 May pending further enquiries

The lifelong Chelsea fan played football as a youth with former X-Factor contestant and Woodingdean-based Frankie Cocozza.

The singer wrote on social media website Twitter: "My life will never be the same".

He began the message with the "#cs26" hashtag, which was begun by friends after news Mr Saunders had died.
