Police in Derry-Londonderry are appealing for witnesses following a number of assaults associated with a bar fight in the city on Sunday morning.

They say up to 10 people were involved in a fight in premises in Beechwood Avenue which spilled out onto the street.

Although a 50-year-old man who was involved in the altercation died later in the day, his death is not being directly linked to the assault as the post mortem continues.

His body was found at his home in the Clon Elagh area of Skeoge on Sunday.

Police have asked that anyone who witnessed the incident between 1.15 and 1.45am contact them on 101.
