Cops release CCTV in hunt for man, 25, after woman killed in home ‘altercation’ as anyone who sees him urged to call 999
COPS have released an image of a man they wish to speak to after a woman was killed in an “altercation” at home.
Police are searching for Jacob Clark, 25, from Luton, in relation to the incident on Turners Road North yesterday.
A 46-year-old woman tragically died while another in her twenties sustained injuries which are not believed to be life threatening.
Cops rushed to the scene in Luton on Monday morning, with the 46-year-old woman later pronounced dead at Luton and Dunstable University Hospital.
The force has been treating the incident as a “targeted attack”.
Detective Inspector Adam bridges, from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit suggested they are investigating a number of lines of enquiry.
The search previously detailed a white man, in his 20s and between 5ft 9in and 5ft 10in in height.
He was also described as wearing all-black clothing with a hood and was believed to have left the scene on a black and red electric scooter which has since been recovered, the force said.
Cops have suggested Jacob may look different to the image provided.
Det Insp Bridges said: “We have also issued a CCTV still from near the scene of the incident.
“This is a murder investigation, and as such I would urge anyone who knows where Jacob is to contact police immediately. If you believe you have seen him, please do not approach him and dial 999 straight away.
“I would like to remind the public that we are treating this as a targeted attack and we are maintaining a high police presence in the area for additional reassurance.”
An increased police presence at the property and surrounding areas has been carried out to reassure members of the public.
The force urged anyone with any information about the incident, or who had seen a man matching this description behaving suspiciously, to contact them “urgently” using 999, quoting Operation Wroxham.
To do so anonymously, those with information can also contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
