TWO men arrested over the death of a Poole chef have been released on bail as detectives renewed an appeal to find his mobile phone on Sunday.

Glyn Helliwell, 42, described as a "gentle giant" by those who knew him, was found dying from stab wounds in Parkwood Road, Southbourne, at 12.45am on Wednesday.

He was taken to the Royal Bournemouth Hospital, but died later.

On Friday detectives investigating Mr Helliwell's death said they were looking to recover his mobile phone or a missing knife.

DCI Kevin Connolly has now renewed his appeal to the public - particularly shop owners - in finding the black Sony Ericsson k800i.

Mr Helliwell was a popular chef at Southbourne's Bistro on the Beach restaurant, whose boss called the 6ft 3in Poole man a "gentle giant" and a "true gentleman".

An inquest opened on Thursday heard that he died from a stab wound.

Two Bournemouth men, aged 21 and 28, were arrested and have now been released on police bail.

Anyone with information about the case should call Dorset police in confidence on 01202 222222 quoting incident number 06:14, or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
