Girl, 16, held in murder probe
A 16-YEAR-OLD girl has been arrested on the suspicion of murdering her mother's boyfriend.
The 34-year-old man was found with stab wounds to his neck at his home in Royds Street, Barnfield, Accrington, at 11.30pm yesterday. He was taken to Blackburn Infirmary but was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.
The girl was due to be questioned today by officers from Accrington police's public protection unit who are specially trained in interviewing children.
I take it everyone's heard this story in the news today? I have only read the Telegraph's article and that's enough to have shocked me greatly, I can only speculate as to why this happened but whatever the case it's a tragedy.
