A 39-year-old man arrested at the scene on Wednesday on suspicion of ******* ******** in hospital with critical injuries, the force added.

A police spokesperson said cordons remained in place for searches at a number of addresses on Carlby Grove, Carlton Street, Malsis Road and Minnie Street.

Det Ch Insp Stacey Atkinson, said: “Extensive enquiries remain ongoing today in what is very much a live and active investigation.

“Specialist officers are continuing to support the family.
