A 40-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and released on bail.
This followed an incident in the early hours of Friday 21 June in which a man in his 70s was found unconscious outside in Overbrook, Swindon.
He has since died in hospital and his next of kin have been informed.
Detective Inspector Penny Andrews said: “Our thoughts are with the gentleman’s relatives at this difficult time.
“We are actively investigating the circumstances and keeping an open mind about what may have taken place. We need to hear from anyone who was in the area on Friday night and may have seen anything suspicious.
“We would also like to hear from anyone who may have driven past and have dash cam footage or nearby householders who may have doorbell camera recordings.”
Anybody able to help is asked to contact the police on 101 quoting log 54240072328. Alternatively, they can leave information without giving your name by calling Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
