A murder investigation has been launched after a 10-year-old girl was found dead at a house in Woking. Officers were called to a property on Hammond Road at about 2.50am on Thursday in response to a concern for safety. On arrival, the girl was found dead, Surrey police said. Police said the girl’s family had been informed and were being supported by specially trained officers. An investigation, led by the Surrey and Sussex major crime team, has been opened to establish the circumstances of the girl’s death. The senior investigating officer DCI Debbie White said: “We have identified a number of individuals we would like to speak to as part of our inquiries, and at this stage we are not looking to identify anyone else in connection with our investigation. We have no reason to believe there is any risk to the public.” White added: “This is a devastating incident, and our officers are working hard to build a picture of what happened. There is a significant police presence in Hammond Road and this will remain over the coming days. “We appreciate that the police presence will be causing concern and we would like to thank local residents for their cooperation as we conduct our investigation. We will provide further updates as soon as we are in a position to.” Anyone with information that could help the investigation is asked to contact Surrey police, quoting PR/45230089209.
