An unnamed man has been arrested and charged with suspicion of manslaughter in connection with Johnson’s death. He died last month after an opposing player’s skate cut his neck during a game.
Police in South Yorkshire, England, say they have made an arrest in connection with the death of Adam Johnson, a professional hockey player who died last month after his neck was slashed by the blade of a skate during a game.
The man, who authorities have not named, was charged with suspicion of manslaughter and is still in police custody.
«Our investigation launched immediately following this tragedy and we have been carrying out extensive enquiries ever since to piece together the events which led to the loss of Adam in these unprecedented circumstances,» said Detective Chief Superintendent Becs Horsfall in a statement.
