A man appeared in a London court on Tuesday charged with killing three women in a knife and crossbow attack near London in July.

Kyle Clifford, 26, faces three murder charges over the deaths of 61-year-old Carol Hunt and her daughters Hannah Hunt, 28, and Louise Hunt, 25. The victims were the wife and daughters of John Hunt, a well-known sports broadcaster.

The three women were found fatally injured at the family home in Bushey, just north of London, on July 9.
