Police in the UK have urged the chief suspect in the 'horrific' murders of three women - understood to be the wife and daughters of a BBC sports commentator - to hand himself in.

The trio had suffered serious injuries but were alive when discovered, however all died a short time later.
Ch Supt Jon Simpson said "extensive police resources" are being piled into the manhunt, and that members of the public had already been getting in touch with the police to report possible sightings. "There was a lot of activity from the police and ambulance last night - there were over a dozen cars. There was an air ambulance. The road was closed way past midnight. There is no access into the road." Riaz, who is in his late 50s and works in Telecoms, said: "It is a decent neighbourhood. It is mostly retired people and professionals living here."
