Investigation so far

Police in a statement released on Thursday said: ‘As part of our ongoing investigation into the death of a man in Campfield Road, Shoebury on Wednesday 27 March, we have arrested a man in their 40s from the Witham area on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter.

‘This is a joint investigation with the Health and Safety Executive and our enquiries are ongoing.’

The Death of George Gilbey

George, 40, who had been working at height died after plunging 35ft from the building in Shoebury, near Southend-on-Sea, Essex on Wednesday.

Efforts to resuscitate the former Celebrity Big Brother star proved abortive.

The father-of-one was working as an electrician and owned a firm called WindG Ltd installing electrical systems for domestic and commercial clients.
