UK Eyes Stricter Crossbow Laws After Triple Killing

News summary

Kyle Clifford, 26, is suspected of killing Carol Hunt, wife of BBC radio commentator John Hunt, and their two daughters with a crossbow in Bushey, northwest London. Clifford was found injured in a cemetery in north London and is being treated in a hospital. The police believe the attack was targeted, and Clifford is reportedly an ex-boyfriend of one of the victims. This incident has sparked calls for stricter crossbow regulations, with Home Secretary Yvette Cooper considering new laws to align crossbow ownership with stringent firearm licensing requirements. The government had already been reviewing crossbow laws earlier this year following another fatal attack in 2018. Cooper's decision on potential legislative changes is expected soon.
