The family of the three women who were killed in a crossbow attack in Bushey, Hertfordshire, this week have said they are “devastated”.
The victims were named as Carol Hunt, 61, the wife of Sky Sports and BBC racing commentator John Hunt, and two of their daughters, Louise, 25, and Hannah, 28.
In a statement, husband and father John, and daughter and sister Amy said: “The devastation that we are experiencing cannot be put into words.
“We would like to thank people for their kind messages and for the support we have received in recent days. These have provided great comfort to us for which we are very grateful.
“As you can imagine, this is an extremely difficult time for us, and we need time and space to come to terms with what has happened and start the grieving process. While this is happening, we would ask that our privacy and that of our wider family and relations be respected at this time. Thank you.”
The man suspected of killing the three women in Hertfordshire has been arrested.
Kyle Clifford, 26, was detained by police on Wednesday afternoon.
He has been treated for injuries in hospital since then but was only arrested today on suspicion of the murders. He remains in a serious condition.
Police say a crossbow has been recovered as part of the investigation.
