A 23-year-old man who died on a southern Queensland street after an altercation has been remembered as a loving father.

It’s understood a brawl broke out between a group of people at a bus stop near Bell Street in Toowoomba about 9.30pm yesterday.

The fight spilled to nearby a Middle Eastern restaurant, where 23-year-old Jack Norman Roberts collapsed.

Emergency services rushed to the scene where they worked on Roberts, but he was unable to be saved.

Mr Roberts’ sister Ruth said the father would “literally give you the shirt off his back”.

“He was the best father, son, brother, and uncle,” she said.

“He adored his son, he made a nice life for himself.”

Police spent the morning taking statements from witnesses and local business owners.
