Glastonbury murder investigation: Appeal for information as two released without charge
Two men arrested on suspicion of murder have been released without charge as the investigation into the death of an 89-year-old Glastonbury resident continues.
Police have also been in the town centre today, asking people for their help as they seek to unravel what happened to Frederick Burge., who was found deceased at his home in George Street at around 12.30pm on Sunday 26 February.
Throughout the weekend officers will be in the Market Place, speaking with members of the public and handing out witness appeal leaflets in the Market Cross area to seek further witnesses.
Detective Inspector Neil Meade, of the Major Crime Investigation Team, said: "Frederick was last seen seven days ago, on Saturday 25 February, at around 8.10am walking his Jack Russell dog along Northload Street and High Street.
"We're keen to hear from anyone that recalls seeing him after that point, or was in the George Street area last weekend and saw anything out of the ordinary. What may have seemed inconsequential at the time, could be significant to our investigation, so please come forward and let us know."
DI Meade added: "We continue to provide support to Mr Burge's family and update them on the latest developments with our investigation.
"They are understandably devastated by the events of recent days and we continue to work day and night to get answers for them about what happened."
