Probe Underway As Man, Woman and Child Die
A man, woman and child have died from their injuries after an incident at a house in Leicestershire on Thursday evening.
Police said they were alerted to the incident at about 4.20pm on Thursday afternoon when a 15-year-old injured girl raised the alarm in the Melton area. The victim was taken to hospital.
During the initial investigation, police attended an address in Melton and forced entry to the house where they discovered two children and two adults with injuries.
A police spokesman said that a man, a woman and child discovered at the address had since died from their injuries.
It is believed that the man was a former police officer.
Meanwhile, two children are being treated at the Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham for serious injuries.
The spokesman said: "We are in the initial stages of the investigation but at this stage we are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident."
The house has been cordoned off to allow for a forensic examination.
Post mortem examinations are due to take place at a later stage.
