Another man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after an 18-year-old man was found fatally injured near a hospital.

Dorset Police said the victim may have been stabbed in Dale Close in Poole and driven to Longfleet Road, 1.5 miles (2.4km) away, where he was found at 02:13 BST on Friday.

A 19-year-old man, from Poole, came forward overnight and has been arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in custody, police said.

Officers are appealing for help to trace the driver of a dark-coloured Nissan Juke seen in the area of Dale Close.

Five men were arrested on Friday.

A 20-year-old man from Blandford who was arrested on suspicion of murder remains in custody.

A 22-year-old man from London and a 22-year-old man from Bletchley, Buckinghamshire, who were initially held on suspicion of assisting an offender, have since been further arrested on suspicion of murder.

They also remain in custody.

Two men, aged 36 and 38, from Bournemouth, who were arrested on suspicion of murder have been released and will face no further police action.

Referring to the dark-coloured Nissan Juke, Det Supt Neil Third said: "If any members of the public saw a vehicle matching the description or captured it on doorbell cameras or dashcam, we are keen to hear from them too.

"We continue to keep the victim's family updated on the progress of our investigation and our thoughts are with them at this incredibly difficult time.

"We do not underestimate the concern and upset that an incident of this nature will have in the community."

He urged anyone with CCTV, doorbell or dashcam footage from Dale Close or Longfleet Road from the early hours of Friday to contact the force.
