A young man who was killed after an incident in Golcar has been named by friends.
He was Sean Annandale, 22, from Marsden, who was treated at Huddersfield Royal Infirmary following an attack in Elmfield Avenue in the early hours of Sunday morning but died a short time later.
Two men aged 17 and 23 were arrested on suspicion of murder and remain in custody.
A 34-year-old man who was yesterday arrested has since been released with no charge.
Mr Annandale’s sister posted a message on Facebook asking for ‘respect’ for her brother as details surrounding what happened are yet to emerge.

She continued: “Love you Seany forever and ever and ever, just like we all did and always will.”
An area of Golcar around Elmfield Avenue remained sealed off today and a large police presence remained in the area.
