A woman has been taken into custody because the police suspect she gave someone a harmful substance. The police are investigating whether this substance caused three people to die.
The police are trying to find out what happened to three people who died in South Bank, near Middlesbrough. The people who passed away are named Kevin Conway, Stephanie Alderson, and Kathleen Broomfield. The incidents occurred between July and September of this year.
A 43-year-old woman has been taken into custody because the police believe she gave a harmful substance to three people that caused their deaths.
Two men who are both 47 years old, along with a 39-year-old woman, have been arrested for possibly committing the same crime related to Ms Broomfield’s death.
The police said that all four people are still out of jail while the investigations are continuing.
Mr Conway was found dead at a house on Ajax Way on July 15.
His sister, Claire, said: ‘Kevin was loved by many as a son, father, brother, and friend to all who knew him. ‘ I can’t explain how sad I am that he passed away suddenly.
On Monday, Ms Alderson’s body was discovered at a house on Ajax Way.
Stephanie’s mom, Glennis, said: ‘Stephanie was a beloved daughter who will be really missed. ‘
On Tuesday, the police received a call because Ms Broomfield had unexpectedly died at a house in South Court.
Her brother Paul said that there are no goodbyes between us. No matter where you are, you will always hold a special place in our hearts.
A spokesperson from the Cleveland Police said: ‘There have been three deaths in the South Bank area within the past three months. Police are currently looking into whether there is any connection between the deaths of a man and two women. ‘
Right now, the police are still investigating the deaths and are unsure of the reasons. They are waiting for more tests to be done in order to figure out how the individuals died.
