A DAD "ran around an estate" after allegedly stabbing two women to death and leaving a boy injured in hospital on Christmas Day. The women, 24 and 38, one of whom is believed to have been his partner, were pronounced dead at the scene on Wednesday. A man in his 20s and a young boy were also rushed to hospital from a property in Bletchley, Milton Keynes, at around 6.30pm.

A dog was also found with significant injuries and had to later be put down by a vet. The suspect is then believed to have attempted to escape the scene in a car before he was caught by police nearby. A witness said: "We saw him getting in his car. We were on our balcony telling police: 'He’s there and he just sped off.’".

A 49-year-old from Milton Keynes was arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder on Christmas Day. Another neighbour told The Sun: "At around 6pm a lady came out on the balcony - she’s screaming, ‘I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe’.". The neighbour described how the young boy sprinted out the house and sought refuge with another resident on the estate.

He went on: “The dog ran out, covered in blood. Within minutes there were about 12 ambulances.”. Another shocked witness said medics treated a bloodied male in the street before taking him to hospital. He added: “Paramedics were working on him and the other victims were covered in a white tarp.”.
