Man Officially Arrested Following The Death Of Adam Johnson
In a major turn of events surrounding the unfortunate demise of Adam Johnson, the former NHL player who tragically lost his life on the ice in late October due to a skate-inflicted neck injury, the BBC reports a crucial update - an arrest has been made in connection with the case.
The statement released by the authorities discloses that a man has been apprehended on suspicion of manslaughter related to the death of the ice hockey player.
As of now, the suspect remains in custody following the arrest on Tuesday, as reported by BBC News.
While the identity of the arrested individual has not been officially disclosed by the police, speculations point towards Matt Petgrave, the player whose skate caused the fatal injury to Johnson.
Manslaughter, a charge suggesting no malicious intent but potential negligence, underscores the belief of law enforcement that some form of neglect played a role.
At the time of the tragic incident, Johnson was actively playing for the Nottingham Panthers. His hockey journey included a stint with the NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins before making his way to the U.K. for further play.
