Three males have been arrested in connection with the murder of Lee Turner.
The 33-year-old Swindon man was knifed to death in The Venny, a green space between Pinehurst Road and Cricklade Road, on Sunday, 10 October.
A 17-year-old boy and two men, aged 18 and 24, from London are in custody.
The 24-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to murder and the two other suspects were arrested on suspicion of murder.
Detective Chief Inspector Phil Walker said: “The three arrests that have taken place overnight are the result of a great deal of focus and effort by our officers who have been working with colleagues from outside the force area.
“We hope this will provide some reassurance to those living in the area following this dreadful crime which has undoubtedly raised concerns in the community.
“Our thoughts remain with the family of Mr Turner at this difficult time and we would like to assure them that we are doing all we can to bring those responsible for his death to justice.”
