Police in England have made an arrest in the death of Minnesota native Adam Johnson, whose throat was slashed by an opposing player’s skate during a game between the Nottingham Panthers and Sheffield Steelers in the Elite Ice Hockey League last month.
The arrest was announced on Tuesday – 17 days after the incident – but South Yorkshire Police did not identify the man in custody. In a press release, the department said detectives “arrested a man on suspicion of murder.”
The belief is that the arrested man is Sheffield hockey player Matt Petgrave, whose skate struck Johnson in the neck during an October 28 game. Horrific video of the play showed Johnson falling to the ice and then attempting to skate to the bench while clutching his neck. Blood pooled on the ice and Johnson was later pronounced dead when taken to the hospital.
