“As we have so far not been able to locate Tarin, I’m now asking for the public’s help in tracing him.”If there’s anyone out there who may be shielding him through a sense of misguided loyalty, they need to be aware that they are committing an offence and will be prosecuted.

“My message to Tarin would be that it’s vitally important that we get to speak to you as soon as possible, so please do the right thing and let us know where you are.”
The force advised anyone who sees Tarin not to approach him but to ring 999 immediately.
One woman living nearby said: “I thought it was foxed screaming. She (one of the victims) was absolutely screaming her head off. He wasn’t speaking English, that’s for sure. He shouted something and then ran off.”There was a lot of screaming and shouting and then I saw the guy run off. About a minute later I saw him leave in a van.”
Another neighbour said he was woken at around 12.30am by screaming but assumed it was just people coming home from a night out.

The father-of-two, who also declined to give his name, said: “Then police knocked on my door and asked for some towels, so I knew at that point it was serious.”I’ve got a young family so I was worried about what was going on.”
One neighbour said she saw a man leaving the scene in a van. Detective Inspector Caroline Corfield of West Midlands Police appealed to the suspect to come forward.S he said: “We are still in the very early stages of our investigation but we believe the offender is known to the victims.”We are appealing to him to come forward as a matter of urgency.”She described the deaths as “truly devastating and heartbreaking”.
