Horror as two women, 24 & 38, stabbed to death at home with teen boy & man rushed to hospital – with man, 49, arrested
COPS have arrested a man on suspicion of a double murder after reports of a stabbing on Christmas Day.
Officers were first called to a block of apartments in Santa Cruz Avenue, Bletchley around 6.36pm yesterday.
Terrified neighbours have described what they believe to be blood splattered on the front door of the Milton Keynes home.
Forensic teams have been spotted near the address with Thames Valley police having cordoned off the usually quiet street.
Christmas decorations and children’s toys have been spotted strewn outside the three-storey property.
One neighbour, who asked not to be named, told The Sun: “It’s mortifying.
“I heard all the ambulances last night but you don’t expect anything like this to happen around here.
“And on Christmas day of all days.”
Another claimed emergency services treated a victim in the street before taking them to hospital.
They said: “[Paramedics] were working on him in the street. And the other [victims] were covered in a white tarp.”
