Authorities Investigate the Fatal Stabbing of Carol Hunt and Her Daughters in Bushey While Suspect Remains in Hospital After Self-Inflicted Crossbow Injury

On the evening of July 9, the serene life of Carol Hunt and her two daughters, Hannah and Louise, was abruptly shattered.

Carol, aged 61, along with her daughters, aged 28 and 25 respectively, were discovered with fatal injuries at their home in Bushey, Hertfordshire.

The tragic news has left the community and their loved ones reeling from the shock.

The prime suspect in this heartbreaking case is 26-year-old Kyle Clifford. Clifford, who is the former boyfriend of Louise and a former soldier, has yet to be interrogated by the police.

After a large-scale manhunt, Clifford was located less than a day later in Enfield, North London. He was found with what appeared to be self-inflicted injuries and was promptly hospitalized after allegedly shooting himself with a crossbow bolt. It is feared that he may have injured his spinal cord.

The authorities are currently waiting for medical personnel to confirm Clifford’s condition before proceeding with the interrogation. The clock to question Clifford on suspicion of triple murder will only start ticking once they begin questioning him.

Family’s Heartfelt Tribute

In the wake of this unspeakable tragedy, John Hunt, a BBC racing commentator, and his surviving daughter, Amy, have shared their grief and gratitude.

“The devastation we are experiencing is beyond words,” said John Hunt. “We appreciate the kind messages and support we’ve received, which have provided great comfort during this difficult time. We ask for privacy as we begin the grieving process.”
