Police are urgently seeking an armed and dangerous man wanted in connection with a gruesome triple 'murder' that occurred in Bushey last night.
Kyle Clifford, 26, from Enfield, is being actively sought by police who have warned the public not to approach him as he may be carrying a weapon.
Armed police had been called to a property on Ashlyn Close just before 7pm yesterday where they discovered three women, believed to be related, with serious injuries.
Despite the best efforts of emergency responders, all three women died at the scene.
Locals living in the proximity of the attacks described the terrifying police response that descended on the quiet cul-de-sac.

Another Herfordshire local claimed 'there has been a helicopter circling all morning' close to the Bushey border.
Detective Superintendent Rob Hall from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit said: 'This is an incredibly difficult incident for the victims' family and we would ask that their privacy is respected as they come to terms with what has happened.
'Whilst we are still in the early stages of this investigation, we are actively seeking Kyle Clifford who we believe could be in the areas of Hertfordshire or North London.
'Given the serious nature of the incident, I would ask anyone who knows where he is to contact police immediately. If you believe you see him, please do not approach him and dial 999 straight away.
'He may still be in possession of a weapon.
'Our enquires will continue over the coming days to ascertain the full circumstances of what happened but I would also like to take this opportunity appeal to anyone who was in the area around Ashlyn Close from around lunchtime on Tuesday until 7pm, and believes they may have seen anything that could assist the investigation, to contact us.
'This incident will of course be of concern to local residents. Officers from the Neighbourhood Policing Team will be in the area today so please do speak to them if you need to.'
