Carol Hunt,Hannah Hunt Obituary, Death; – The police have located the 26-year-old suspect, Kyle Clifford, in the Enfield area of north London. He was found with injuries and is currently receiving medical treatment. No shots were fired by the police during his apprehension.
The victims of the attack were identified as Carol Hunt, 61, Hannah Hunt, 28, and Louise Hunt, 25. They were the wife and daughters of John Hunt, a horse racing commentator for the BBC. The incident has sparked discussions about the regulation of crossbows in the U.K. There is currently no registration system or licensing requirement for crossbow ownership in the country, though it is illegal for anyone under 18 to possess one.
The Home Office had launched a review earlier this year to consider implementing a licensing system and tighter restrictions on buying and selling crossbows, similar to regulations for firearms. The review was completed in April, but action was apparently stalled by the recent elections.
