Two men were arrested Tuesday in relation to the fatal stabbing of a man at a party at the home of former world champion boxer Herbie Hide in Norwich, located in eastern England.
A 20-year-old man from the Norwich area was arrested Tuesday afternoon on suspicion of murdering 25-year-old Tafadzwa Khan in the early hours of Sunday morning, the Norfolk Eastern Daily Press reported.
Earlier, an 18-year-old man, also from the Norwich area, was arrested in connection with the incident.
Both men remained in custody Tuesday evening.
A 16-year-old boy arrested Monday was released on bail, pending further inquiries.
Detectives said Kahn, known as "Taffy," was stabbed following an argument at the party. He was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics shortly after they arrived, Sky News reported.
Post mortem results showed the 25-year-old died as a result of a single stab wound, although he had received multiple stab wounds to the body.
The house in the village of Bawburgh remained sealed off by police Tuesday as they carried out a forensic examination of the property.
Norfolk Police said that while they continue their investigations at the home, Hide and his family were staying elsewhere.
Hide was crowned WBO heavyweight world champion in 1994 but lost the belt to Riddick Bowe in his first defense a year later. He regained the vacant title in 1997 and twice defended it before a second-round knockout against Vitali Klitschko in 1999.
The 40-year-old remains active as a fighter in the cruiserweight division but has not entered the ring since April 2010.
