The Conservative MP, who represented Southend West in Essex, was reportedly attacked by a man who walked into a church in Leigh-on-Sea where he was hosting a constituency surgery.

An air ambulance was at the scene, as were other emergency vehicles.
Police had sealed off the area and the street outside was placed on lockdown.
Essex Police arrested a man, then later confirmed the victim had died.
