A woman and a child have been found dead inside a flat in Leeds.

West Yorkshire police said officers made the discovery of the body of the woman, believed to be aged 30, and the 10-year-old child, thought to be her son, when they were called to a flat in the Holbeck area of the city by someone concerned about the welfare of the occupants.

A police spokesperson said: “While inquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances of their deaths, officers are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.”

Formal identification has yet to be completed.
