Floral tributes have been left at the scene, with well-wishers seen handing bouquets to officers stationed behind a police cordon.

One was left by Chantelle Fenton, who lives in the town.

"I saw the lady a few times when I walked past but I never knew her," she said.

"It's just sad because it's happened on your own doorstep."
