Police have said they are not conducting any other search operations after a paramedic and a woman were found dead in a house in Staffordshire.
A murder investigation has been launched after the bodies of Lauren Evans, 22, from Bridgend, South Wales, and Daniel Duffield, 24, from Cannock, were discovered at a house in Hednesford, Cannock, on Tuesday.
The autopsy was completed on Friday but a definitive cause of death will be determined at a forthcoming inquest.
“We are not searching for anyone else in connection with the deaths and are preparing documents for the coroner. Specialist officers are continuing to provide support to the families involved,” police said in a statement.
Ms Evans was a final year mental health nursing student at Swansea University. A university spokesman told the BBC: “Lauren was passionate about nursing and showed great determination and commitment during her time at Swansea University.”
Mr Duffield was a paramedic working for the West Midlands Ambulance Service, based at the Willenhall Hub. Senior operations manager Richard Barratt said Mr Duffield was a well-known member of staff who was always eager to help colleagues. He featured in an episode of the documentary series “999: On the Frontline”, which aired in March.
Detective Superintendent Nikki Addison, from the police’s Major Investigations Unit, said: “Obviously, this incident has been devastating to the families and loved ones of those involved and I would like to reiterate that the family ask that their privacy be respected at this tragic time.”
She added that speculation could hurt the family and hinder police investigations. “We would like to thank everyone who came forward with information,” she said. “We hope that the scene will be made public once all investigative work and forensic testing has been completed.”
Staffordshire Police have reported the incident to the Independent Office for Police Conduct, citing “recent police contact”.
