"This investigation is moving at pace and formal identification of the victims is yet to take place. The premature naming of potential victims has caused great upset to the family when they should’ve been given the space to come to terms with their sudden loss.
"Following extensive enquiries, the suspect has been located and nobody else is being sought in connection with the investigation at this time."
Tributes poured in on social media, with one person writing: "The breaking story about John Hunt's family is pretty much the most shocking thing I can ever recall seeing on here. Absolutely appalling - thoughts very much with him and his family."
A second person penned: "Unbelievable news about John Hunt's family today. Struggling to read the saddest news online. Words cannot express my deepest sympathies with you John."
