Tributes flood in for BBC sport commentator whose wife and daughters were killed in suspected crossbow attack

London CNN — Figures from across the sporting world have offered their condolences to a BBC sport commentator, after his wife and two daughters were killed by an alleged crossbow attacker, in deaths that again drew attention to the epidemic of violence against women.

Carol Hunt, 61, wife of BBC horse racing commentator, John Hunt, and their daughters, Hannah Hunt, 28, and Louise Hunt, 25, died from injuries sustained in an attack in Bushey, just northwest of London, on Tuesday, according to police and Britain’s public broadcaster.

A 26-year-old suspect wanted in connection with the killings, and named as Kyle Clifford, was found by British police in Enfield, north London, on Wednesday, following a sprawling manhunt. Clifford is receiving treatment for injuries, Hertfordshire police said in a statement, adding that no arrests have yet been made.

A crossbow is believed to have been used in what police described as a “targeted incident,” adding that other weapons may also have been used.
