Neighbours shock after 'quiet' mother and son are found dead in their home

A mother and her young daughter living in an ordinarily quiet Leeds cul de sac now live with a crime scene outside their door following the heart breaking death of their neighbours. On the evening of September, 15, the bodies of a 30-year-old mother and her 10-year-old son were discovered in a flat in Cross Ingram Road, Holbeck.

Police had been contacted by worried neighbours after no one had seen either of them for some time, Leeds Live reports. One neighbour, who lives a couple of doors down, said that the mother and son had lived there for around three years but they regularly went to visit Portugal.

Neighbours had initially thought the pair had gone away on a trip to Portugal but as ''weeks'' passed they became concerned about their whereabouts. The neighbour, who does not wish to be named, added: "They for sure had not been seen for over two weeks because nobody put bins out for collection in that time, she [the mum] normally did it."
