All the Nottingham bus services facing disruption as police launch murder investigation

A murder investigation launched by the police after three people were found dead across the city has led to the closure of a number of bus city roads. Police were called to Ilkeston Road, in Radford, just after 4am where two people were found dead in the street.

Officers were then called to another incident in Milton Street, in Nottingham city centre, where a van had attempted to run over three people. They are currently being treated in hospital.

A man has also been found dead in Magdala Road, in Mapperley Park. Police have arrested a 31-year-old man on suspicion of murder and he remains in police custody.
