An attack was reported to our Ipswich headquarters on Friday 23 May 2022. The
victim, a 35 year old white male was found on the floor of Room 37 of the Novote I,
Greyfriars Road, Ipswich.
The body was discovered at 20.00 hours by a hotel chambermaid, Jennifer Dustier
and was identified as Mr David Grubstalker, a health inspector.
The attack is thought to have happened between 19.00 and 20.00 hours on the
date above.
There were no visible weapons at the scene although the victim did have a severe
gash on his head. The gash measured 4cm in length and was very deep. The body
was lying in a pool of blood when found and ink stains were observed on the collar
of the victim's shirt, leading to his shoulder.
Footprints leading away from the body were observed and appeared to have traces
of an unidentified white powder. Samples of the powder have been sent to
forensics in Martlesham for analysis.
The body was sprawled across the hotel room floor and does not appear to have
been moved.
All hotel staff and guests have been questioned and rooms searched. The
evidence obtained to date has led us to 5 suspects, descriptions of which are
included in this report. A list of suspects is given below:
All suspects were found to have white powder on their shoes and samples have
been taken and analysed along with that found at the crime scene.
