COPS have launched a murder investigation after an elderly woman died in “suspicious circumstances” at a care home.
Two pensioners have been arrested after the victim, 88, was discovered dead at the home in Sleaford, Lincolnshire.
Detective Inspector Mel Rooke, of the Major Crime Unit, said: “Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the victim this evening.
“Our specially trained officers will be providing support to her family as our inquiry continues.
“I understand any unexpected death is a concern to our communities and this tragic death will be no different.
“Our inquiries will take some time to complete and I would ask that the family and the care home are left in peace and their privacy is respected.
“I can say there is no wider risk to the public.”
