The death of a man after an attack in downtown Nottingham has been described as “tragic” by people in the city. Many who live in the center and its suburbs say they would be reluctant to go out in the evening after a man in his 30s fell after an attack on Broad Street.
No one was arrested after the attack at around 2am on Sunday, April 24. Nottinghamshire police, who remain at the scene, are calling for more information on the “quarrel between a group of men”.
The incident comes just over a month after an attack on the intersection of Upper Parliament Street and Trinity Walk, which took to the hospital Nathaniel Beerley, 26. He died at the hospital 12 days later on March 17.

Jessica Muncie, a 30-year-old trainee pharmacist at St Ann’s, said the death was “tragic”. She told Nottinghamshire Live: “There’s so much going on, you just don’t know. It’s tragic, I keep seeing things like that on Facebook. This is crazy, I’m too old to go out now, but I wouldn’t let my kids go out.
“I have a 19-year-old stepson and I wouldn’t want to let him in town. When I was younger, it didn’t seem like so many things were happening, it’s so sad.”
Tracy Neal, a 29-year-old Bullwell nurse, said: “This type of thing happens often in the city. This is a concern, especially on weekends and evenings. I don’t go out anymore, I stopped as I see how people can get up after two or three drinks. They start acting crazy, they can’t handle their drink. “
An anonymous 34-year-old from Sninton added: “I’m not going out anymore, too much is happening these days. I hope someone is arrested for that, there must be CCTV cameras.”
Investigating police officer Inspector Mark Parish described the incident as “extremely serious” and said police were “working hard to find out what happened and who was involved”. He said: “Patrols have also been stepped up in the area to provide reassurance. Local investigations are ongoing and we also want to talk to anyone who may have seen a quarrel between a group of men – some of whom are believed to have fled on Old Lenton Street.
Anyone with information is asked to call 101, citing incident 55 of April 24, 2022.
