The footage shows a hideout in the woods at a cemetery where triple murder suspect Kyle Clifford is believed to have hid from police.

A massive manhunt was launched for Clifford after the bodies of Carol Hunt, 61, wife of BBC 5 Live commentator John Hunt, and two of their daughters, Hannah, 28, and Louise, 25 years, were discovered at a house in Bushey last Tuesday. just after 7 p.m.



And Clifford, 26, was found with injuries at Lavender Hill Cemetery in Enfield, north London, on Wednesday afternoon and taken to hospital. Armed police had been in the area earlier, with an air ambulance nearby, but police confirmed no shots had been fired.

Footage from Sky News appeared to show Clifford being removed from the cemetery by paramedics, and another clip appeared to show the suspect being taken to the Royal London Hospital. He is understood to have undergone emergency surgery for a chest wound.

And images near the cemetery appear to show where Clifford was hiding in the bush, which is believed to be close to his home. A heat-seeking infrared camera helped locate Clifford in the wooded area after his car was found outside. Looking at the scene now, among the trees and vegetation, it can be seen that they were stepped on by the workers who cleaned up the area on Friday.
