The headteacher of Epsom College and her seven-year-old daughter who who were found dead at their home were reportedly killed in a double-murder suicide by her husband.
The bodies of Emma Pattison, 45, her daughter Lettie, and her husband George, 39, were all found at their home within the private school's grounds in Surrey. Police said the deaths were an isolated incident and there was no third-party involvement.
A reporter for the BBC has reported that the father killed both his wife and daughter, before taking his own life. A source had told The Telegraph newspaper that a member of staff living nearby raised the alarm after hearing gunshots, reports the Mirror.
