Police have launched a double murder investigation after three bodies were found at separate properties in Newtownabbey, County Antrim. Detectives investigating the deaths say they are linked and they are not looking for anyone else. DCI John Caldwell said police received a report of a stabbing incident at a residential property in the Derrycoole Way area shortly before 11pm on Friday. Police and the ambulance service were called to the scene where a woman was found dead. “As officers carried out further inquiries, they attended a residential property in the Glenville Road area,” Caldwell said. “An unconscious man was located in the property. Despite the provision of first aid, the man was pronounced dead. On searching the property, another deceased woman was located. “While we have launched a murder investigation, we are not looking for anyone else in connection with these incidents, which we believe are connected.” Police have appealed for people with information to contact 101.
