Police say a 16-year-old student from Qatar, the victim of a racially motivated attack, died when he fell and hit his head on the ground.

Mohammed Al-Majed suffered a serious head injury during the assault outside a takeaway restaurant in Hastings, just before midnight on Friday. He died in hospital late Sunday evening.

Was he assaulted, pushed, or did he fall?

His family are understood to have flown to England, as police try to establish exactly what happened.
