Fourth man arrested in drive-by shooting that killed Dale 'Brett' Stogden in Wakefield
A fourth man has been arrested in the investigation into the murder of Dale ‘’Brett’ Stogden in Wakefield.
Mr Stogden, 50, was killed after shots were fired from a vehicle on Doncaster Road on Tuesday, August 12.
Police investigating the murder arrested and subsequently charged three men, Marc Carter, 19, of Dunbar Street, Adam Ahmed, 20, of Edgemoor Road, and Leyton Davies, 27, of no fixed adobe on Monday (August 18).
In the early hours of Friday (August 22), officers arrested a 49-year-old man from Wakefield on suspicion of murder. He, along with the three previously arrested, remains in custody.
Mr Stodgen was described as a “gentle giant” by those who knew him.
The ex-security guard, from Wakefield, underwent several rounds of chemo after being diagnosed with lung cancer last year. He was cleared in February this year.
His daughters, Piper, 18, and Alyssa, 20, are now crowdfunding in an attempt to hold a funeral for their father, who they say was "taken too soon".
