An 18-year-old man has been charged with murder following the tragic discovery of three bodies in a flat in Luton on Friday, September 13.
Detective Superintendent Rob Hall, of the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit, expressed his deep sympathy for the victims’ loved ones: “First and foremost, our thoughts are with the three people who sadly lost their lives yesterday and their loved ones. Although formal identification has yet to take place, the next of kin have been informed and are being supported by specialist officers. We would ask that their privacy is respected at this unimaginably difficult time.”
