A MAN has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a 56-year-old man died from injuries sustained in a suspected clash involving Hell’s Angels and another biker gang.

A 40-year-old from the Torfaen area is in police custody on suspicion of the murder of Anthony ‘Tony’ Jones, who died following a violent disturbance just over the Monmouthshire border in Pontnewynydd, Pontypool.

He is one of 25 men to have been arrested for a range of offences relating to the incident on Thursday evening, August 6.

Six remain in police custody and 19 others have been released on police bail as enquiries continue.

A blue Ford Transit van, which police had launched an appeal to locate, has also been found.

“The Ford Transit van was located outside of the Gwent area and we’re currently assessing the van to establish how it relates to our investigation,” said Detective Superintendent Laura Bartley, the Senior Investigating Officer.

“Officers have also located Anthony Paul Jones and we will be speaking to him in connection with our enquiries. We understand that this complex investigation has caused substantial disruption within our communities since it was reported to us.”

“We are extremely grateful for the patience, support and co-operation shown by our communities while this work continues.”
