Family of John Hunt killed in crossbow attack
On Tuesday, July 9, John’s wife and two of his daughters were murdered in an attack that took place at their home in Hertfordshire.
Armed police and paramedics arrived at the scene shortly after the attacker fled.
Sadly, John’s wife, Carol, 61, and two of her daughters, Hannah, 28, and Louise, 25, all died at the scene from their injuries.
Kyle Clifford, 26, who is suspected of carrying out the attack, was captured by police yesterday (Wednesday, July 10). He is allegedly the ex-boyfriend of John’s daughter, Louise Hunt.
Detective Inspector Justine Jenkins from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit issued a statement following the tragedy.
“This continues to be an incredibly difficult time for the victims’ family and we would ask that their privacy is respected as they come to terms with what has happened,” she said.
