Arrest after man dies in shopping centre attack

A person has been arrested after a man died following an attack at a shopping centre in Milton Keynes.

The incident happened at the Centre:MK on Saturday afternoon and large police cordon remains in place.

A suspect has been arrested, Thames Valley Police said in a post on social media.

The force has yet to confirm the death but friends and family members of the man said in online posts that he had died.

Officers urged anyone with concerns or information to contact them.

Centre:MK said the site remained closed.

Thames Valley Police has been approached for more details.

Milton Keynes Central MP Emily Darlington said it was "a shock" but urged people not to speculate online.

She said: "Its really important that the police are there and they're investigating and anybody who has any information that might be useful to the police, I urge them to get in touch with them."

The Labour MP added the shopping centre had "always been a very safe place" and somewhere she has gone with her children.

But she again asked people not to "jump to conclusions".
