British police are investigating the death of a man after he was reportedly hit on the head with a rubbish bin during a Premier League football match at Stoke City.

They say the 30-year-old suffered a head injury in an incident just after half-time in a game between Stoke and Blackburn Rovers.

The man was one of about 1,300 Blackburn fans at the game.

Another 30-year-old man is in custody being questioned by police.
