A second man has been arrested on suspicion of the murders of five prostitutes in the eastern English town of Ipswich, police said yesterday.

The first suspect, identified by media reports as local supermarket worker Tom Stephens, was arrested at his home in Trimley, a few kilometers outside of Ipswich.
