A murder suspect wanted in connection with three deaths – including a mother and son – has been arrested, West Midlands Police has said.

Anthony Russell was arrested in a Staffordshire village on Friday morning.

He was wanted in connection with the deaths of Julie Williams, 58, and her son David Williams, 32, in Coventry.

Officers also linked the 38-year-old with the death of a missing woman from Warwickshire after a body was found on Newbold Comyn near Leamington at around midday on Thursday.

Assistant Chief Constable Mark Payne said: “The deaths of three people in the Midlands region this week have been shocking and devastating for the families involved. Our thoughts remain with them as they come to terms with the tragic circumstances of their deaths.

“We are grateful to everyone who has assisted with our appeals for information, but although we have a suspect in custody, our investigation must now establish exactly what has happened.”
