A man and a woman arrested over the killing of a father-of-two outside an Oxford pub remain in custody this morning.

Stephen Pinker, 43, of Burford Road in Witney, was slashed across the throat outside The Corner House in Hollow Way, Cowley, on Tuesday night, and died.

Police arrested a 25-year-old man on suspicion of murder and a 21-year-old woman on suspicion of assisting an offender.

Officers have until midday today to continue quizzing the pair about Mr Pinker's death before needing to seek an extension.
