A 49-year-old woman has been arrested on suspicion of murder after two people died in Stoke-on-Trent on Sunday
The woman, who was related to the victims, was arrested on suspicion of murder at the house and is in custody.
Detective Superintendent Nicki Addison, of Staffordshire Police, said:"This is a tragic case and we are working hard to understand more about what happened leading up to these two people losing their lives."We ask that people do not speculate on the circumstances at this stage as it is distressing for family and friends, and could hinder our enquiries.
"We understand that this incident may cause concern in the local community and further afield. We know that the woman arrested is related to the people and we don't believe there is wider threat to the public at this time."
