Two people arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with the death of Widnes mum Vera Anderson more than 30 years ago have been released under investigation pending further enquiries.
Cheshire Police announced on Wednesday it had arrested a 70-year-old man from Widnes and a 61-year-old woman from Warrington. Mother-of-two Veronica Anderson, 42, known as Vera, was found dead with her throat cut in her car on land off Tannery Lane in Penketh shortly after 3am on Sunday, August 25, 1991.
A glove stained with blood that was later forensically matched to Vera was found nearby. She had left her home at 10.10pm the previous evening after receiving a phone call.
