Police name Piotr Maculewicz as Hammersmith murder victim

Police have named the victim of a murder in Hammersmith last week.
At around 19:15hrs on Friday 11 March, police were called to a man unconscious in the forecourt area of Sulgrave Gardens, Sulgrave Road W6. Officers and the ambulance service attended but he was pronounced dead at the scene.

He has now been named as 29-year-old Piotr Maculewicz (14/5/81), a Polish national.

A post-mortem at Fulham Mortuary on 13 March did not establish a formal cause of death and we await results from further tests.

An incident room has opened at Barnes under DCI Howard Groves of the Homicide and Serious Crime Command

DCI Groves said: "We have established that prior to being found Mr Maculewicz was in a lock up off the forecourt area of Sulgrave Gardens, and there may have been a fight.

"There would have been people coming and going at the time of the incident. The area is overlooked by a number flats and I am sure there are people who may have witnessed what happened and I am encouraging those people to contact the incident room."

Officers will be attending the scene this evening (Friday 18 March) to speak to anyone in the area, handing out leaflets and appealing for information. Anyone with information that may assist the investigation should call the incident room on 020 8247 7821; if you wish to remain anonymous call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

+ Two men [A - 31 ys; B - 27 ys] were arrested in connection with the inquiry and were taken to separate west London police stations. Both were later bailed to return in May pending further inquiries.
