A murder investigation has been launched after police were called to a property during England’s World Cup match against Sweden on Saturday.
A 32-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a woman was stabbed to death and a teenager was injured in the assault.
Officers were called to the property in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, at 3.45pm yesterday following reports of an assault.
The 54-year-old woman was pronounced dead at the scene in Wood White Drive.

Thames Valley Police said that next of kin have been informed.
Detective Superintendent Ian Hunter, head of the major crime unit, said: “I understand that this incident will cause concern in the community, but I would like to reassure people that we believe it to be an isolated incident.
“We have launched a full investigation and have made an arrest.
