A man who was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter over the death of ice hockey player Adam Johnson has been released on police bail.
The Nottingham Panthers player's neck was injured by a skate during a collision with Sheffield Steelers' Matt Petgrave on 28 October.
The 29-year-old was taken to hospital where he was pronounced dead.
South Yorkshire Police announced the arrest on Tuesday but said on Wednesday the man had been released on bail.
Nottingham Panthers have previously described Johnson's death as a "freak accident".
The death of Johnson, who was from Hibbing, Minnesota in the US, sparked an outpouring of grief across the world.
Speaking to KSTP-TV, a local news station based in Minnesota, the player's aunt Kari Johnson said her nephew had been planning to propose to his partner, Ryan Wolfe.
"We were all really excited because we were really looking forward to their future and he didn't get a chance to ask her, and then this happened," she said.
Johnson previously played in North America's National Hockey League (NHL), featuring 13 times for Pittsburgh Penguins.
He scored his maiden NHL goal in his home state for the Penguins against the Minnesota Wild in 2019.
He made the move to the Swedish Hockey League (SHL) for the 2020-21 season, before spells with the Ontario Reign and the Lehigh Valley Phantoms in the American Hockey League (AHL).
Johnson played for Augsburger Panther in Germany's DEL before switching to the Nottingham Panthers in August.
He posted 11 points in 12 games in both league and cup fixtures before his death.
Nottingham Panthers are to return to the ice for the first time since 28 October in a special memorial game against the Manchester Storm on Saturday.
A South Yorkshire Police spokesperson said: "Our investigation continues and we will provide further updates as and when we can."
