Lincolnshire Police have launched a murder investigation following the death of a woman in Hogsthorpe.

"We were called to an address on Thames Street, Hogsthorpe, just after 9am today (29 September) following a report that a woman in her 30s had died,” a force spokesperson said.

“Her family have been made aware, and will be supported by specially trained officers at this difficult time."

Earlier today, residents in the village described seeing a large police presence in the street, with multiple police cars, armed officers and an ambulance. One witness said he was standing at the bus stop in the road when police “stormed a house”.

Police say they have now arrested two men in their 50s and 60s on suspicion of murder. They remain in police custody.

“A scene guard will remain in place, so residents in the local area may see a heightened police presence while inquiries are ongoing,” the spokesperson explained.

“Thames Street and Langham Road were closed during the incident. We do not believe there is any wider risk to the public.”

They added: “We have opened up the Major Incident Public Portal (MIPP) in relation to this incident. This is a website that allows the public to submit information directly to a major incident room. Information, photos, or video footage can be submitted via the MIPP.
