The man suspected of murdering three women in a crossbow attack in southern England has been arrested, British police say.
Kyle Clifford, 26, was found by officers in Enfield, north London, on Wednesday following an extensive manhunt. He was in serious condition in hospital, then arrested on Thursday, police said.
“A man has now been arrested in connection with a triple murder which happened on Tuesday evening,” Hertfordshire Constabulary said Friday.
Carol Hunt, 61, the wife of BBC horse racing commentator, John Hunt, and their daughters, Hannah Hunt, 28, and Louise Hunt, 25, were named as the victims of the attack.
The three were found seriously injured at a house in the town of Bushey and later died in hospital. A crossbow was recovered as part of the investigation, which police believe was used in a “targeted incident.”
Detective Superintendent Rob Hall, from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit, said Friday: “Our thoughts remain with the victims’ family at this tragic time.”
“The investigation is moving at pace and as a result, we have now arrested a man. Enquiries are continuing at this time,” he added.
