Tributes have been paid to a "much-loved" man, who died in an attack in North Yorkshire.

Following North Yorkshire Police's announcement that two people had been charged with murder after an incident at a flat in Strawberry Dale, Harrogate, on Sunday (September 29). The force revealed the name of the victim: 56-year-old Paul Tillet.

Paul’s family have paid the following tribute to him: "Paul, you were a much-loved son, dad, brother and uncle, who will be truly missed and forever in our hearts.

"You will never be forgotten. Sleep tight, we love you."

Paul’s daughter added: "My dad's life ended way too soon, he will be missed dearly by close friends and family.

"He brought me up with so much love and respect and I'll always remember the great moments we shared.

"I'll forever miss him, and I hold him close to my heart, and be devastated on the things he'll miss throughout my life. I hope he is at peace."

The two accused will appear in York Magistrates' Court today. A third man, arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender, has been released on bail.
