Police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths of a young Staffordshire paramedic and a student nurse. Staffordshire Police launched a murder probe earlier this week after the body of 24-year-old Daniel Duffield, who featured in Channel 4's 999: On the Frontline, was discovered at a property in Hednesford.

The body of Lauren Evans, aged 22 from Bridgend, was also found at the scene. Police have now confirmed this evening that they are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths and as a result a file is being prepared for the coroner.

Post-mortems were concluded today and the cause of death is a matter for an inquest in due course, the force added. Specialist officers are continuing to support the families of those involved.

Lauren, 22, from South Wales, is believed to be the woman found dead

Detective Superintendent Nicki Addison, from the force's major investigations department, said: “This incident has understandably devastated the families and loved-ones of those involved. We’d like to reiterate that the families have asked for their privacy to be respected at this tragic time.

"Speculation is unhelpful and hurtful to the families – and can hinder our investigation. I’d like to thank everyone who has given us information. We expect the scene to be released once we’ve finished all of our investigative work and forensic examination."
