A 22-YEAR-OLD man has been arrested in connection with the death of a teenager.
Dominic Barritt suffered severe injuries in the unprovoked attack, which happened in Walton-on-the-Naze in the early hours of Saturday.
Essex police confirmed tonight that they have arrested a 22-year-old man from East London in connection with the attack, outside the Food and Drink Store in High Street.
However a spokesman said they were unable to say what the man had been arrested for.
Dominic underwent emergency treatment at a specialist hospital for head injuries following the assault - at just after 2am on Saturday - but died with his mother at his bedside on Monday.
