Police have named a man who was found dead after being hit over the head in north London this week.

He was Pawel Chwalinski, a 35-year-old Polish national. His body was found near Park View Road, Tottenham, at about 5pm on Tuesday.

Officers said his family in Poland have been informed of his death and appealed for anyone who knew Mr Chwalinski to get in touch.

A post mortem examination on Thursday gave the cause of death as blunt force trauma to the head and neck.

Detectives from the Homicide and Major Crime Command have so far made two arrests.

A 44-year-old man was detained on suspicion of murder on Wednesday, before being bailed pending further investigation.

A 28-year-old man was also arrested on suspicion of murder on Friday. He remains in custody at a north London police station.
