A three-year-old boy and a girl, 11, are among four people who have been found dead in a flat in west London.
Officers were called to the address in Staines Road, Bedfont, Hounslow, shortly after 3pm on Friday, June 16, following reports of concerns for the welfare of those living there.
After forcing their way inside, they found the four victims were already dead.
Scotland Yard said they are thought to be a man and woman, both in their 30s, an 11-year-old girl, and a boy aged three.
All four are thought to be related, but enquiries are under way in respect of formal identification and informing next of kin.
Chief Superintendent Sean Wilson, local policing commander in west London, said: ‘Our investigation is at a very early stage, and based on our initial enquiries, we are not currently seeking anybody else in connection with the incident.
‘I know the shock and distress that this terrible incident will cause among the community in Hounslow and beyond. I can assure local people that specialist officers are working to establish exactly what happened and I will provide further information as soon as I can.
