Merseyside police say a man’s been arrested in connection with the deaths of two people – one from the Isle of Man – after an event at a Liverpool nightclub.

 

The 22 year old from Seaforth was arrested on suspicion of drug dealing and released on bail.

 

47 year old Andrew Glaister of Ramsey died after attending a closing-down event for Cream nightclub on Boxing Day.

 

A 19 year old man from Merseyside also died, sparking a warning from police over dangerous ecstasy tablets.

 

A police spokesman says the man’s arrest is not being "directly linked" to the deaths at this stage.
