The bodies of two women have been found inside a house in Nottingham, with police saying they had lain undiscovered for some time.
Nottinghamshire police said officers were called to a property in Radford, an inner-city area of Nottingham, at 11.04am on Tuesday after concerns were raised for the welfare of the occupants.
Officers later gained entry to the property and found the bodies of two women inside. Investigations are continuing to establish how and when the women died, police said.
DCI Ruby Burrow said: “Whilst we don’t believe there to be an immediate risk to the public, we are keeping an open mind into what has happened at this address and will be working hard over the next few days to establish how and when these two women lost their lives.
“In the meantime my thoughts – and those of every other officer involved in this investigation – are with those who have died, their family and friends.”
NottinghamshireLive has reported that a mother and her teenage daughter were living at the address and neighbours said they hadn’t been seen for a number of weeks.
The property is an end-of-terrace home on a busy road and its front and back gardens are significantly overgrown.
