Detectives have launched a murder investigation after a man was found dead near a theme park in Lincolnshire.
A 30-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder following an incident in Ingoldmells, in the early hours of Thursday, police say.
Officers had been called to reports of a fight in a seaside car park in Skegness.
A man aged 42 was found injured and died shortly afterwards, according to Lincolnshire Police.
The Fantasy Island theme park said it may suspend some rides out of “respect”.
The area was cordoned off and visitors were warned to keep away.
A spokesperson said: “Some of our operational procedures may be adapted, and there may be some ride closures in place in order to respect the sensitivity of the incident.”
Detectives are appealing for anyone who saw the incident to come forward.
