He has been arrested in connection with the gruesome murders of three women who died in crossbow attacks, but he has yet to be questioned by police as he is paralysed.

Carol Hunt (61), wife of BBC 5 live commentator John Hunt, and her two daughters, Hannah (28) and Louise (25), were found fatally wounded in their quiet home just after 7pm on 9 July in Bushey, Hertfordshire.

Doctors say Kyle Clifford (26) is unlikely to walk again due to self-inflicted injuries.

The day after the incident, he committed suicide by shooting himself in the upper body with a bolt before police arrived.

Clifford was formally arrested by Hertfordshire Police, but his detention only began with questioning.

Police told The Sun: "The Major Crime Unit is continuing to investigate the incident."

"We do not wish to comment on the details of the individual's medical condition."

Police found Clifford unconscious in the graveyard at his home in Enfield.

Clifford was left paralysed from self-inflicted injuries.

He is said to have locked the three women in his home.

His believed ex-girlfriend Louise is said to have warned her current boyfriend by text message, who then called police.

Mr Hunt previously paid tribute to his "wonderful and inspirational" surviving daughter after the family left behind were killed in the horrific attack.

In paying tribute to the three victims, Mr Hunt and his third daughter Amy said "words cannot describe the devastation we are witnessing".
