On suspicion of murder, a 52-year-old lady and a 26-year-old man have been taken into custody.
From the Homicide and Major Enquiry Team of West Yorkshire Police, Det Ch Insp Matt Holdsworth stated: “My team is working to establish the circumstances that led to the man’s death.”
“We are not searching for anyone else in relation to this event; we currently have two individuals under custody.
This incident happened on a normally calm residential street. I am aware that there is a lot of conjecture on what happened and who was involved, and that this occurrence has raised concerns in the larger community. Anyone with information, please share it with us.”
