Four people found dead at a house in England were two young girls, a man and a woman – who were all believed to be family members, police said.

Police said officers forced their way into an address in Costessey, near Norwich, shortly before 7am on Friday following a call from a member of the public.

The bodies of four people were found inside – and they were a man, 45, a 36-year-old woman and two young children, both girls, Detective Chief Inspector Chris Burgess said.
