Woman, 65, arrested ‘for murder’ after man found dead at home in High Wycombe

A 65-year-old woman has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a man was found dead on a leafy street in Buckinghamshire.

Police said they received a report of a body at an address in Terry Road, High Wycombe, at around 6.45pm on Friday.

Officers attended and a 63-year-old man, who was known to the woman arrested, was found dead.

The coroner has been informed and the victim’s next of kin have been informed, although the man has not yet been formally identified.

The woman, from High Wycombe, was arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in custody, the force said.

A cordon remains in place at the home as police inquiries continue.

Tree-lined Terry Road is a residential street of period houses, more usually known for its good location to schools and transport links.

Detective Chief Inspector Nicola Underhill said: ‘We understand this murder investigation will be of concern to the community but we do not believe there is any threat to the wider public.

‘We are in the early stages of a complex investigation but we are following a number of lines of inquiry to establish the full circumstances.

‘Members of the public are likely to see an increased police presence in the area while we investigate and we would advise anyone with any concerns to please speak to one of our uniformed officers.’
