A 29-year-old man has been charged with murder after a mother and her young son were found stabbed to death.

Daniel Boulton is alleged to have killed Bethany Vincent and her nine-year-old son Darren Henson on Monday evening, Lincolnshire Police said.

Ms Vincent, 26, and her son suffered fatal stab wounds during an incident in High Holme Road, Louth, at around 8.29pm.

Boulton has also been charged with wounding with intent to resist arrest after an incident on Tuesday in which an off-duty police officer was stabbed in the Hubbard’s Hills area of the town.

The suspect was arrested shortly after the second stabbing incident at a farm near Louth.

Boulton, Alexandra Road, Skegness, who also faces a charge of burglary, is due to appear at Lincoln Magistrates’ Court on Friday.
