(South Yorkshire) -- A man has been arrested in the death of a hockey player from Minnesota who was fatally injured during a game in England last month.
Adam Johnson died last month after another player's skate cut his neck in what was called a "freak accident."
South Yorkshire Police announced on Tuesday a man has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter in connection to Johnson's death.
Johnson was playing for the Nottingham Panthers in the UK Elite League at the time of the incident.
He previously played for the Pittsburgh Penguins in the NHL for parts of two seasons.
