THE family of a man who died on Saturday after being found with serious injuries have paid tribute to him.

Archie Robson, 59, from Macclesfield, had lived in Knutsford for a long time before moving to Macclesfield.

He was taken to Macclesfield Hospital on Friday night after being found with serious injuries at an address in Glegg Street, Macclesfield.

A tribute from Archie’s family said: "He was a lovely, intelligent guy, friendly to everyone and a character people just loved. We will miss him deeply."

Up to a year ago Archie had lived in Knutsford for a long time before moving to Macclesfield.

Two Macclesfield have been charged with murder following Archie's death. A third man has been arrested on suspicion of section 18 assault. He has been bailed pending further inquiries.
