The family of a 25-year-old have paid tribute to a young man who "made an impact on the lives of everyone he met".

Police launched a murder probe into the death of Charlie Greaves, who died an address in Felixstowe last week.

Officers were called by ambulance services to an incident at the seafront promenade by Undercliff Road West at about 9.20pm on Saturday, August 10 to a report of an assault.

Officers were then called again at 10.30am on Sunday to a property in Carr Road where a man in his 20s, who had been injured in the assault, was found dead.

Subject to confirmation at formal inquest proceedings, Suffolk police identified the man as Charlie Greaves from Ipswich.

A police spokesman said Mr Greaves would have been seen with his dog, a brown and white Staffordshire bull terrier and boxer crossbreed.

His family say he will be "sorely missed" by all his family and friends.

They added: "Charlie was an affable young man who was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

“He had been with his partner for eight years and loved to go on holiday with his family. He doted on his grandparents and would help to care for them.

“His pet Princess was a rescue dog that he had acquired about nine months ago and she had brought him a great deal of joy. He also loved to cook and play his music loud.

“He had a heart bigger than Ipswich and loved to chat – he would talk to anyone and everyone. He made an impact on the lives of everyone he met.

“He was deeply loved and will be sorely missed by all his family and friends.”

A 28-year-old man from Felixstowe was arrested by officers on Monday, August 12, on suspicion of murder.

He was taken to Martlesham Police Investigation Centre for questioning and bailed to return to police on October 7.

Officers continue to ask anyone who may have witnessed an altercation or who has any information about the man’s death to contact police.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Suffolk Police, quoting crime reference 37/45286/24.
