John Hunt broke down in tears while sharing about his wife and daughter who were killed in a spear attack by his daughter’s ex-boyfriend. “I will make the perpetrator pay!”

The wife and daughters of John Hunt were killed in a crossbow attack at their home earlier this week.

And, last night (Wednesday, July 10), John’s BBC co-host, Mark Chapman, paid tribute to the radio star’s wife and daughters.

Family of John Hunt killed in crossbow attack

On Tuesday (July 9), John’s wife and two of his daughters were murdered in an attack that took place at their home in Hertfordshire.

Armed police and paramedics arrived at the scene shortly after the attacker fled.

Sadly, John’s wife, Carol, 61, and two of her daughters, Hannah, 28, and Louise, 25, all died at the scene from their injuries.

Kyle Clifford, 26, who is suspected of carrying out the attack, was captured by police yesterday (July 10). He is allegedly the ex-boyfriend of John’s daughter, Louise.

Detective Inspector Justine Jenkins from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit issued a statement following the tragedy.

“This continues to be an incredibly difficult time for the victims’ family and we would ask that their privacy is respected as they come to terms with what has happened,” she said.

She continued. “This investigation is moving at pace and formal identification of the victims is yet to take place. The premature naming of potential victims has caused great upset to the family when they should’ve been given the space to come to terms with their sudden loss.

“Following extensive enquiries, the suspect has been located and nobody else is being sought in connection with the investigation at this time.”
