Two arrests have been made in connection with a robbery at a jeweller in Richmond, where the victim was found dead the following day.
Police were called to the jeweller on Kew Road shortly before 3pm on Saturday (May 25).
Two unarmed men entered the shop and assaulted a member of staff before stealing multiple high-value watches.
The victim, Oliver White, did not sustain serious injuries during the attack, but was found dead in Shepperton, Surrey, on Sunday.
His death is not being treated as suspicious.
A woman in her 30s has been released under investigation, while a man, also in his 30s, was arrested on Wednesday, May 29, and has been bailed pending further inquiries.
Police are still looking to speak to the two men shared in their appeal.
Anyone who recognises the two men pictured or has information that could assist police is asked to call 101 or ‘X’ @MetCC and quote CAD4555/25May.

Detective Chief Inspector Scott Mather, from the Met’s Flying Squad , said: “First and foremost, our thoughts remain with Mr White’s family and friends at this unimaginably difficult time. We would ask that they are given the privacy they need to grieve.
“We are working tirelessly to get them the answers they need and are making good progress with our investigation. We urge anyone who has information that could assist us to get in touch as soon as possible.
“The images we have provided are good quality and someone must recognise the men we need to speak to. If you don’t want to contact police, please contact Crimestoppers anonymously.”
