A 27-year-old man has died just days after he was punched in an ‘unprovoked attack’ while cycling.
George Glover died on August 20 following the attack in Leicester three days earlier which left him with life-threatening injuries.
Mr Glover was found by a member of the public on Narborough Road at around 6.30am before he was rushed to Queen’s Medical Centre in Nottingham.
A 24-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit murder last night and a man, 31, and a woman, 39, remain in custody after they were arrested on suspicion of robbery and conspiracy to commit murder.
Mr Glover’s family have since paid tribute to their ‘much-loved son and big brother to his three siblings’ after his death.
They said: ‘His loss is already felt so deeply. He was a hardworking, focused young man who worked so hard to get a job he loved and enjoyed.
‘George lived a simple life. He went to work then came home to enjoy his gaming or putting bike parts together. He very much kept himself to himself.
‘His siblings looked up to him and as soon as he arrived home, the banter with them would start.

‘He was loving, loyal and had a good sense of humour. He enjoyed Anime, Lego and Pokémon cards.
‘He had a tough start in life with physical challenges but we’re so proud of the young man he’d become.
‘We know there are so many people who’ll miss him as he was held in such high regard.’
Detective Inspector Kevin Hames said: ‘From what we’ve been able to determine, this was a violent and unprovoked attack that’s sadly led to a young man losing his life.
‘We owe it to his family to identify those responsible and bring them to justice – and I’m appealing for public help ensuring this happens.
‘Narborough Road is a busy route in and out of the city. Please cast your mind back to Monday morning. Were you there? What did you see?
‘I believe there are people who can help but have not yet come forward. Any information or footage you can provide could assist with our investigation.’
