Man and woman found shot in head in Crook

A man and a woman have been found shot in the head in a car in County Durham.

The bodies were found with "serious gunshot wounds", not far from Crook Golf Course, Durham Police said.

Detectives said they were not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths and did not believe anyone in the wider community was at risk.

Officers found the bodies at 11:35 BST, on Low Job's Hill, Crook, after "acting on information received" and the area has been cordoned off.
