A man wanted in connection with two murders in London knew the victims, police have revealed.
Detectives have told the public “not to approach” Lee Peacock, 49, who officers want to question about the killings in Westminster.
A woman, 45, was found at a property in Ashbridge Street on Thursday night and a man, 59, was found early on Friday at a property in nearby Jerome Crescent.
Both had sustained knife injuries, police previously said.
Detectives said they were keeping an open mind about any possible motive.
Lead investigator Det Ch Insp Wayne Jolley said: “Lee lived locally in the area. We have a number of lines of inquiry in regards to trace his whereabouts.
“Both of the victims were known to Lee, we’re not treating these as random attacks.
“I would urge anybody that knows the whereabouts of Lee Peacock to contact police immediately by calling 999.”
Neither the man nor the woman has yet been named.
Inquiries are underway to trace the woman’s next of kin, while the men have been notified and are being supported by specialist officers.
