A search is underway for a suspect believed to have killed a mother and her two children before escaping the country. Bedfordshire Police entered a residence on Carnoustie Drive in Great Denham, close to Bedford, on Monday following reports that the family had been missing for several days. Assistant Chief Constable John Murphy confirmed that authorities have identified a suspect known to all three victims and who is thought to have left the UK.
