A pizza delivery man found stabbed to death at the wheel of his car was making his final delivery before starting a new job.

Thavisha Lakindu Peiris, 25, was found dead by colleagues in his car in Southey Crescent, Sheffield, at 22:30 GMT on Sunday.

South Yorkshire Police said he had just accepted a new job as an IT consultant.

Det Supt Lisa Ray said he had lost his life in the "most brutal of fashions" in an apparently motiveless crime.

'Absolute tragedy'

Mr Peiris, who was born in Sri Lanka, had been working at Domino's Pizza in Halifax Road after completing a degree in IT at Sheffield Hallam University in 2011.

Ms Ray said more than fifty officers were working on the case.

Det Supt Lisa Ray: "This was meant to be his last day delivering pizza"

"He was a bright, hard-working, intelligent and caring man who had worked hard to develop his career in Sheffield.

"His murder is an absolute tragedy and has caused untold grief for his mother, father and brother in Sri Lanka and for his many friends in Sri Lanka and in Sheffield," she added.

Mr Peiris left the restaurant at 21:50 to make a delivery in Southey Crescent and when he failed to turn up, colleagues set off to find him.

They found him dead in his Toyota Yaris outside the address where he was due to make the delivery.

A post-mortem examination found Mr Peiris died from stab wounds.

Ms Ray said: "It is urgent that anyone who saw him, or his car, or anything that they now regard as suspicious, comes forward without delay.

"A family is grieving for a young man who whose life has been taken from him in the most brutal of fashions, and we owe it to him and his family to find the person or persons responsible".

Ms Ray said his relatives were preparing to travel to Sheffield from Sri Lanka.

A spokesman for Domino's Pizza said: "All at Domino's Pizza are shocked and saddened by his death and our thoughts and prayers go out to his colleagues, friends and family."

The company said it was doing all it could to assist the police investigation.

South Yorkshire Police said a number of men arrested had been questioned and released without charge.
