A neighbour on the opposite side of the road told Yorkshire Live: ‘It all happened at around 6:45pm-ish last night I think. Everyone was wondering what was going on, they’d cordoned the whole area off.
‘I’ve never known anything like it around here, she went into the ambulance and never came out.
‘That’s all I know.’
Emma, a local, said: ‘Its normally really quiet around here. I know someone has been killed but not sure about anything else.
‘It’s just a nice quiet place to live so this has come as a shock to be honest.’
Detective Chief Inspector Andrea Bowell said: ‘This will be a deeply distressing time for the families of those involved in this incident, and I would ask their privacy is respected as they seek to understand what has happened.’
