A Somali man is wanted in connection with the murder of Shaun Lyall in Cleethorpes.
Humberside Police want to find 28-year-old Somalian Abdi Ali as part of their investigation into Mr Lyall’s death – and a £5,000 reward is now on offer.
The 47-year-old was found dead at a house in Sidney Street on Tuesday, July 17, sparking a murder investigation.
Police have so far arrested four people in connection with the death. One has been released on bail, two released under investigation and one released unconditionally.
Abdi Ali, who goes under the aliases ‘Madman’, ‘Madders’ and ‘Gulaid’, is originally from Somalia and has links to the Grimsby area, Lancashire, South Yorkshire, Merseyside, Manchester, Milton Keynes, Lincolnshire, and Cleveland.
He has been described as being “quite recognisable”, as he has a distinctive gold tooth at the front of his mouth.
