A disastrous crossbow attack happened at the home of BBC 5 Live racing commentator John Hunt, resulting in the deaths of his wife, Carol, 61, and their 2 daughters, Louise, 25, and Hannah, 28. The sufferers were found tied up and fatally injured at their £800,000 detached home in Bushey, Hertfordshire. Police assure the attack was planned and may have involved many other weapons.
The suspect, Kyle Clifford, 26 years old, is the ex-boyfriend of Louise and is considered armed for bear. A huge manhunt is underway to find him, with police warning the public not to approach him. A lockdown was impeded at a nearby primary school after Clifford’s car was spotted in the area.
Hertfordshire Police have prompted Clifford to confront and are working to establish the circumstances surrounding the triple murder. The force has developed many resources, including armed police and specialist search teams, to trace Clifford. Police are reviewing CCTV footage from the area and appealing for anyone with information to come forward.
The community is in a state of shock, with neighbours considering the family-friendly and hardworking. Resident William Nourallah paid tribute to the ‘beautiful young girl’. Louise ran a dog grooming business from the family home, and her sister Hannah was also targeted in the attack. The BBC has provided support to the family, describing the incident as “utterly devastating”.
Police have warned the public to be alert and to report any sightings of Clifford immediately. The investigation is continuous, with officers working to piece together the events leading up to the tragic incident. The police are prompting anyone with information to come forward and are offering support to the family during this difficult time.
The incident has sent shockwaves through the community, with neighbours and friends paying tribute to the family. ‘This is such an awful incident, the whole community is in shock.’ The police are working tirelessly to bring the suspect to justice and ensure public safety.
