A police cordon remains in place around the Fairway Inn

Several areas have been cordoned off, including outside the Fairway Inn on the corner of Nuthurst Road and Broadway.

Det Ch Insp John Charlton said the incident had “shocked and saddened” the local community and “distressed anyone who witnessed it”.

He said: “We are deploying significant resources to this ******* investigation, and this led to quickly identifying potential suspects.

“We are still trying to establish the full circumstances around the incident.

“There will be a large police presence and several scenes in place while we continue to investigate this horrific incident.
